   The result was the egg exploding in the face of one of his co-workers, who was looking in the kettle to observe. Spencer then created the first true microwave oven by attaching a high-density electromagnetic field generator to an enclosed metal box. The magnetron emitted microwaves into the metal box blocking any escape and allowing for ...

3. Wireless Set Number 10 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_Set_Number_10

   The British Army 's Wireless Set, Number 10, was the world's first multi-channel microwave relay telephone system. [1] It transmitted eight full-duplex (two-way) telephone channels between two stations limited only by the line-of-sight, often on the order of 25 to 50 miles (40 to 80 km). The stations were mounted in highly mobile trailers and ...

4. Microwave oven - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_oven

   A microwave oven or simply microwave is an electric oven that heats and cooks food by exposing it to electromagnetic radiation in the microwave frequency range. [1] This induces polar molecules in the food to vibrate [2] and produce thermal energy in a process known as dielectric heating. Microwave ovens heat foods quickly and efficiently ...

   A microwave oven with a turntable. A microwave oven cooks or heats food by dielectric heating. Cooking food with microwaves was discovered by Percy Spencer on October 8, 1945, while building magnetrons for radar sets at Raytheon. Spencer was working on an active radar set when he noticed a strange sensation, and saw that a peanut candy bar he ...

6. Cavity magnetron - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavity_magnetron

   A cavity magnetron generates microwaves using the interaction of a stream of electrons with a magnetic field, while moving past a series of cavity resonators, which are small, open cavities in a metal block. Electrons pass by the cavities and cause microwaves to oscillate within, similar to the functioning of a whistle producing a tone when ...
