Definition of undefined

The word "microwave" originates from the term "microwave radiation," which refers to electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between 1 millimeter and 1 meter. This type of radiation was first observed in the late 19th century, but it wasn't until the mid-20th century that scientists discovered its ability to heat food. The word "microwave" came into common usage in the 1960s, with the introduction of microwave ovens. These ovens utilize microwaves to heat food, making it a convenient and efficient cooking method.
