How does microwaves harm the body?
Microwaves align polar molecules such as water with the microwaves. This rotation generates energy, which dissipates as heat. So you would be cooked as if you were in a microwave oven.
Do microwaves cause cancer?
No
Is he amount of arsonic in one potato of any harm?
i doubt that there is enough to cause harm.
Can any interaction with the pet dog cause any harm to kids at home?
The potential for harm is there, both directly and indirectly.
Can plastic cause you harm if heated in the microwave?
actualy,it can start a fire.on some microwaves it takes a few seconds then fire comes and in some other ones it takes a few minutes.
What are the dangers of microwave radiation?
In general, microwaves are harmful if they are very powerful and concentrated. All of our ordinary microwave-emitting devices are perfectly safe to use because they are very low power. A microwave oven doesn't release enough of the energy to cause harm when the door is properly closed - hence, a microwave that functions with a door open could be potentially harmful. Very powerful microwaves are harmful because they cause burns. Microwave radiation, despite popular claims, does not cause cancer or any other illness associated with exposure to ionizing radiation. Microwaves from cell phones, for example, are not powerful and concentrated enough to cause harm. In themselves, other than high power exposure - several kilowatts - that's many more times than what is inside an operating microwave oven, microwaves are not dangerous. However, injuries can occur from overheated foods - burns, scalds, eruptions and fires.
What are four sentences for the word harm?

Harm of microwaves escaping a microwave?
actually, you don't need to worry about exposure to them, as long as you can get out of the way in around five minutes, since microwaves are somewhat weak and can do radioactive harm only when you are exposed to it for quite a while. and today, the microwaves you use usually stop heating the minute you open the door, so that is safe. however, just don't stick any metal, whether it be a metal bar or aluminum foil, ever in the microwave. the distortions on a metal surface conducts the electromagnetic waves from the microwaves and converts them into electricity and heat, and even an fire and explosions are possible.
I have this birth control in my arm that last 3 years but it went dead the 20th can it cause any harm in late removal?
No, a birth control method that is implanted will not cause any harm even if it is a late removal.
What types of sound can cause harm?
