A group of students are discussing how the inside of a microwave works. They are trying to figure out why the microwave is not hot after running for several minutes Which statement best describes why the inside of a microwave stays cool after use? A. When the door is opened and the heat is turned off, the inside quickly reaches thermal equilibrium with the air. The microwaves affect water molecules to generate heat through friction, so spaces without water are unaffected. C The thermal energy emitted by the microwave is absorbed by the food through heat transfer processes. D. At the end of the "cook time," the microwave uses a reverse process to extract heat from the air.
