Wavelength Assuming a sinusoidal wave moving at a fixed wave speed, wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency of the wave: waves with higher frequencies have shorter wavelengths, and lower frequencies have longer wavelengths. Wavelength depends on the medium (for example, vacuum, air, or water) that a wave travels through. Examples of wave-like phenomena are sound waves, light, and water waves.

One way to estimate for green tea is bring the water to a boil, then remove from heat and let sit one full minute before pouring over tea. I have used this method and the green teas taste right so while not as accurate as a thermometer it gets the job done!

- 1 For example, if one large potato takes 10 minutes to cook, two large potatoes would take between 16-17 minutes. 2  If you prefer crispy skinned potatoes, you can cook the potatoes in the microwave for 5-6 minutes, then transfer to a baking sheet and bake in an oven preheated to 400 °F (204 °C) for 20 minutes. If you are in a rush, you can cut open the potato immediately after the microwave stops, add your toppings (or not), and then do the final cooking in the microwave by microwaving another 30 to 60 seconds. 2  Using a rotating carousel for microwaving is the best way to get the potato evenly cooked all around.

Microwaving food in plastic: Dangerous or not? For microwave approval, the agency estimates the ratio of plastic surface area to food, how long the container is likely to be in the microwave, how often a person is likely to eat from the container, and how hot the food can be expected to get during microwaving.he problem with that warning is that plastics don't contain dioxins. They are created when garbage, plastics, metals, wood, and other materials are burned. As long as you don't burn your food in a microwave, you aren't exposing yourself to dioxins.
