  2. Microwave oven - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_oven

    A microwave oven does not pose this problem. Food and cookware taken out of a microwave oven are rarely much hotter than 100 °C (212 °F). Cookware used in a microwave oven is often much cooler than the food because the cookware is transparent to microwaves; the microwaves heat the food directly and the cookware is indirectly heated by the food.

  4. Direct-drive turntable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct-drive_turntable

    In a direct-drive turntable the motor is located directly under the center of the platter and is connected to the platter directly. It is a significant advancement over older belt-drive turntables for turntablism, since they have a slower start-up time and torque, and are prone to wear-and-tear and breakage, [5] as the belt would break from backspinning or scratching. [6]

  5. Microwave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave

    Microwaves are non-ionizing radiation, which means that microwave photons do not contain sufficient energy to ionize molecules or break chemical bonds, or cause DNA damage, as ionizing radiation such as x-rays or ultraviolet can. [25] The word "radiation" refers to energy radiating from a source and not to radioactivity. The main effect of ...

  6. Microwave transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_transmission

    Microwave signals are normally limited to the line of sight, so long-distance transmission using these signals requires a series of repeaters forming a microwave relay network. It is possible to use microwave signals in over-the-horizon communications using tropospheric scatter , but such systems are expensive and generally used only in ...

  7. Traveling-wave tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traveling-wave_tube

    A major advantage of the TWT over some other microwave tubes is its ability to amplify a wide range of frequencies i.e. a large bandwidth. The bandwidth of the helix TWT can be as high as two octaves, while the cavity versions have bandwidths of 10–20%. [2] [3] Operating frequencies range from 300 MHz to 50 GHz.

  8. Turntable (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turntable_(disambiguation)

    Railway turntable, a device used at some railroad facilities to turn locomotives or other rolling stock around Car turntable , a motorized or manual device, usually installed in a driveway or on a garage floor, that rotates a motor vehicle to facilitate an easier or safer egress of the vehicle and/or eliminate backing up

  9. Turntablism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turntablism

    Turntablism as it is known today, however, did not surface until the advent of hip hop in the 1970s. Examples of turntable effects can also be found on popular records produced in the 1960s and 1970s. This was most prominent in Jamaican dub music of the 1960s, [6] among deejays in the Jamaican sound system culture.
