The Dude: Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man. Jesus Quintana: Let me tell you something, pendejo. You pull any of your crazy shit with us, you flash a piece out on the lanes, I'll take it away from you, stick it up your ass and pull the fucking trigger 'til it goes click.. The Dude: Jesus. Jesus Quintana: You said it, man.
Microwaves. Â­Not surprisingly, a mÂ­icrowave oven uses microwaves to heat food. Microwaves are a type of wave that are sandwiched between radio waves and infrared radiation on the electromagnetic spectrum. In the case of microwave ovens, the commonly used wave frequency is roughly 2,450 megahertz (2.45 gigahertz). Waves in this frequency range have an interesting property: They're absorbed by water, fats and sugars. Once absorbed, they're converted directly into atomic motion -- heat.
Microwaves and radio waves are used to communicate with satellites. Microwaves pass straight through the atmosphere and are suitable for communicating with distant geostationary satellites, while radio waves are suitable for communicating with satellites in low orbit. Radio waves and microwaves. Radio waves and microwaves are types of electromagnetic radiation. Both have communication uses. Radio waves are used to transmit television and radio programmes, while microwaves are used for mobile phones and Wi-Fi. However, they have different properties: Radio waves have longer wavelengths and are reflected by the ionosphere (part of the Earthâs atmosphere). Microwaves have shorter wavelengths and pass through the Earthâs atmosphere.
