that the food is cooked uniformity.
2. The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to a depth of approximately 1 inch (2.5cm). Cooking continues as the heat is
dissipated through the food.

vary according to the temperature at the start of cooking, i.e. depending on whether the food is frozen or not.
