What is the properties of microwave?

Microwaves are a form of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths ranging from about one meter to one millimeter, corresponding to frequencies between 300 MHz and 300 GHz. They can penetrate various materials, making them effective for heating and cooking food by causing water molecules to vibrate and produce heat. Microwaves are also used in communication technologies, radar, and medical applications due to their ability to transmit information over long distances. Additionally, they exhibit properties like reflection, refraction, and diffraction, similar to other electromagnetic waves.
