  2. 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 rotate and produce thermal energy in a process known as dielectric heating .

  3. Microwave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave

    A microwave oven passes microwave radiation at a frequency near 2.45 GHz (12 cm) through food, causing dielectric heating primarily by absorption of the energy in water. Microwave ovens became common kitchen appliances in Western countries in the late 1970s, following the development of less expensive cavity magnetrons. Water in the liquid ...

  4. Trivection oven - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trivection_oven

    The Trivection oven is a convection microwave created by General Electric, which combines radiant heat, convection, and microwaves for customized cooking. According to GE, it cooks food five times faster than a traditional oven. [1] Alton Brown, host of Good Eats, was involved in developing the oven. [2]

  5. Incandescent light bulb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incandescent_light_bulb

    Incandescent light bulbs come in a range of shapes and sizes. Bulb shape and size designations are given in national standards. Some designations are one or more letters followed by one or more numbers, e.g. A55 or PAR38, where the letters identify the shape and the numbers some characteristic size.

  6. Gas-discharge lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas-discharge_lamp

    A flicker light bulb, flicker flame light bulb or flicker glow lamp is a gas-discharge lamp which produces light by ionizing a gas, usually neon mixed with helium and a small amount of nitrogen gas, by an electric current passing through two flame shaped electrode screens coated with partially decomposed barium azide. The ionized gas moves ...

  8. Phase-out of incandescent light bulbs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-out_of_incandescent...

    Announced in 2011 China has banned imports and sales of certain incandescent light bulbs since October 2012 to encourage the use of alternative lighting sources such as light-emitting diodes (LEDs), with a 5-year plan of phasing-out incandescent light bulbs over 100 watts starting 1 October 2012, and gradually extend the ban to those over 15 ...

  9. Cosmic microwave background - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_microwave_background

    The interpretation of the cosmic microwave background was a controversial issue in the late 1960s. Alternative explanations included energy from within the solar system, from galaxies, from intergalactic plasma and from multiple extragalactic radio sources. Two requirements would show that the microwave radiation was truly "cosmic".
