A certain microwave oven produces microwaves of frequency


A certain microwave oven produces microwaves of frequency 2450 MHz by a power of 500 W. How long must it take to heat 556 g of water, initially at room temperature, to the boiling point? Suppose that all the microwave energy is engrossed by the water. (The microwave frequency is important because the water molecule has a rotational resonant frequency at 2450 MHz. This means that water very effectively absorbs radiant energy at this frequency, thereby raising its rotational kinetic energy and its temperature. The specific heat of water is 4186J/kg–C°, and supposes that the room temperature is 20°C.)
