To cook food, a microwave oven converts electrical energy into electromagnetic energy. (A)  Specifically, it pours high-power RADIO waves into the box.

Water molecules and fat molecules resonate (jiggle) with the radio waves, and the heat is generated IN THE FOOD.

I work with microwave radios.  

-- To communicate high-speed data over a distance of 5 to 10 miles, we use a radio transmitter with a power output of 0.07 watt .

-- To communicate high-speed data over distances up to 80 miles, we use a radio transmitter with a power output of 1 to 2 watts.

-- To heat up a chunk of leftover meatloaf, a microwave oven pumps radio waves into the box with a power output of 1200 to 1500 watts ! !

not too sure thinking all accelerations are pointed down

electrical potential energy =0.072 j

explanation:

electrical potential energy is given by

u= q δv

q= charge=6 c

δv= potential difference and is given by

δv= e d

e= electric field

d= distance=5 mm=0.005 m

δv=2.4 (0.005)=0.012 v

now electric potential energy= u= q δv

u=6 (0.012)

u=0.072 j
