    Electromagnetic waves can travel through empty space and move very fast. They make up the electromagnetic spectrum, which orders electromagnetic waves from radio waves with the longest wavelengths and lowest frequencies, to microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays with the highest frequencies. Radio waves have the longest wavelengths and lowest frequencies, while microwaves are used in devices like microwave ovens to transfer energy to water molecules in food and heat the food.

    ● Used in microwave ovens.
    ○ Waves transfer energy to
    the water in the food
    causing them to vibrate
    which in turns transfers
    energy in the form of heat
    to the food.
