Microwaves are like TV waves or light waves. You can’t see them, but you can see what they do.

Microwaves pass through glass, paper and plastic with- out heating them so food ab- sorbs the energy. Microwaves bounce off metal pans so food does not absorb the energy.

A magnetron in the micro- wave oven produces micro- waves The microwaves move into the oven where they are scattered or stirred by a mode mixer (like a fan). Microwaves bounce off metal oven walls and are absorbed by food.
