How microwave cooking works
Microwave ovens are safe. Microwave
energy is not hot. It causes food to make
its own heat, and it's this heat that cooks
the food.
Microwaves are like TV waves or light
waves. You cannot see them, but you can
see what they do.

Mixing antenna
A magnetron in the microwave oven pro-
duces microwaves. The microwaves move
into the area under the oven floor. There
they bounce off the mixing antenna into the
oven where they contact the food.
