Question:
During microwave processing of food materials
During microwave processing of food materials
Show Hint
The dielectric properties of food materials, such as water content, play a critical role in how efficiently they heat up in a microwave.
Updated On: May 5, 2025
- Microwave energy itself is a thermal energy
- Heating is a consequence of light energy in a microwave
- No interactions between microwave energy and dielectric properties of food materials
- Heating is a consequence of interactions between microwave energy and dielectric properties of food materials
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Microwave heating in food processing occurs due to the interaction between microwave energy and the dielectric properties of food materials, leading to the generation of heat.
