adempsey Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 My buddy dropped his cordless phone in the kitchen sink that had water in it. Put it in the microwave to dry it out for 1 minute. Checked it when the beeper went off and it was a pile of melted goo. We were drinking beers at the time. Lol, that's nuts! Next time try some dry rice.

Guest gbfisher Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) When Microwaves first came out. We used to try all kinds of things to see what would happen. Amoung other items One of the best was when my buddy put an egg in for 5 mins. Nothing seemed to happen. I was walking out of the kitchen when he finally took the egg out. I heard a POP!. I walked back into the kitchen to see him frozen and about ready to scream. When he placed the egg on the counter it blew up! There was HOT egg fragments everywhere. I'm glad I didn't stay to watch. He said it hurt for a few seconds lol. It's unbelievable how much egg is in a shell and how it can cover an entire kitchen....

douG Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) If you take a minute to learn how a microwave works, you'll know what you can and what you cannot microwave. Aluminum foil or any metal should never be placed in a microwave, right? Ok now riddle me this. How come the inside of your microwave oven is made of metal? Ok, I guess this one comes to me. The inside of your microwave is made of metal because it reflects all that microwave energy into the food inside. The electromagnetic energy is produced by a magnetron that is tuned to oscillate at 2.45 GHz, the natural frequency of oscillation of the water molecule. You set up an environment with lots of bouncy energy, and the water inside of the stuff inside naturally bounces at the same rate, and by vibrating, heats up the stuff. That's why you can't heat anything in a microwave that doesn't have water in it. Also and as well, metal stuff inside can reflect that microwave energy in ways that don't work for the unit. This can cause sparks and flares and other cool stuff. Throw a CD inside for giggles and ships. I hope this answered your question, O Small Furry One. Feel free to ask again, I can make up all sorts of answers. Edited March 31, 2011 by douG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
