Q

How heat is transferred in a variety of cooking methods

A

Radiation: transfer of heat by electromagnietic waves (heating elements in a stove)
Convection: movement of heat by a fluid such as water or air (boiling water, hot fats)
Conduction: transfer of energy from one molecue to another by direct contact (metal pan on food)

Q

How microwaves generate heat

A

By generating intermolecular friction between the molecules of the food. The microwaves cause water molecules to vibrate; the increased friction between the molecules results in heat.
