The Dude: Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man. Jesus Quintana: Let me tell you something, pendejo.

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.
What do we use infrared radiation, microwaves and radio waves for? Infrared radiation is used for carrying signals from remote handsets and inside optical fibres. We use microwaves to carry satellite TV programmes and mobile phone calls. Radio waves are used for radio and TV broadcasting, radio communications and mobile phone calls. What are the hazards of these types of electromagnetic radiation? Different types of electromagnetic radiation are hazardous in different ways.
