Which of the following is used in oven? (1) X-rays (2) UV rays (3) Microwaves (4) Radiowaves

1 Answer

Answer :

(3) Microwaves Explanation: An oven that uses micro radiation waves as a source of heat in order to cook food as opposed to a fire source. Conceptualized in 1946, Dr. Perry Spencer allegedly discovered the heating properties of microwaves while studying the magnetron. A microwave oven, often colloquially shortened to microwave, is a kitchen appliance that heats food by dielectric heating accomplished with radiation used to heat polarized molecules in food.
