Microwaves cook things quickly. They use high energy, short cycle waves to heat food. The length of time will vary based on the power level, the bulk of the food being cooked and the amount of liquid.

Microwaves uses microwave radiation to heat up food by only heating up the liquid particles in them.

Microwaves are pretty harmless to solid materials and will not cause them to change form in any way if anything were to be placed within it while it is running.
