Short Answer Question
Microwaves-like all electromagnetic waves-travel at the speed of light. In a microwave oven, the waves
reflect off of the metal sides of the interior and set up standing waves inside the oven with nodes at each end.
For this problem, assume that these standing waves are aligned along the 45 cm interior width of the
microwave, and that there are 3 hot spots inside which correspond to the antinodes of this standing waves.
• Sketch this standing wave and identify the harmonic (mode number).
• What are the frequency and wavelength of this harmonic?
