Why would you microwave water? To kill bacteria? Why not just boil it?

take high school physics before posting again

>>10243495
Because kettles are useless unitaskers and I don't have one.

:^)

>>10243495
Way faster than using a pot for people without an electric kettle

>>10243497

Take an undergrad physics class

It is radiation, though. In the same way that visible light, radio waves, and xrays are also all radiation.

The radiation doesn't leave the water radioactive, though. It just makes it hot (which does mean it emits more radiation, but only in the same everything does when hot, including humans).

>>10243495
Many houses in the US don't have 240V outlets, or only have a few in hard to reach places, and their walls aren't wired to carry high amperage 240V (or even high amperage 120V). This means electric kettle products perform pretty poorly compared to similar products in Europe. Thus, most Americans just use their microwave.

The radiation doesn't "stay behind" in the water, it travels through the water vibrating the molecules which are the same size as the wavelength of microwaves. Radiation only emanates from nuclear decaying substances, which water is far to stable to decay like that from mere microwaves. If people actually understood radiation instead of just being scared of the word because of how the media presents radiation, then we'd have milk that'd last forever and food that never spoiled. Fuck soccer moms

That page makes it clear that the results from OP are faked. See >>10243514

yeah, keep buying those microwaves and drinking radioactive water, goy. radiation water doesn't do nothing, ignore all those dead japs.

>>10243593
>japs died from radiation in the bombings

Actually, this was a fake experiment. Someone just wanted to be popular. Much like this poster...

>>10243607
>japanese water isn't irradiated from the 2 nuclear meltdowns they had in the past decade

>>10243607
Well a solid amount of people died from radiation sickness. but I believe most of that was from burns and fall out. I'm not exactly sure how water goes about becoming irradiated but I don't believe shooting radiation at it will cause anything. I think there has to me material contamination of irradiated substances like uranium residue.

weird how the microwaved water cuts the plant

$2 says they poured the water in while it was still hot

>>10243618
>disproven by snopes.com
wow just like how they proved bernie didn't have the nomination stolen by hilldawg right

>>10243622
Ah ok I thought you meant the bombings. That's a different thing anyway, there's radioactive material IN the water unlike a microwave which just generates the waves electrically.

>>10243626
Most of them died instantly calcinated from a gigantic explosion in the city.
Yes, water doesn't get radioactive by a microwave.

>>10243607
>>10243626

It's what I thought.

water actually has to come into contact with the substance. Shooting energy at something won't cause it to become radioactive.

What is Fukashima

if microwaves are so safe, microwave your own baby

>>10243651
CHECK MATE ATEISTS

>>10243487
I am an American I haven't used a microwave in 5 years and when I did use them it was very rarely.
>HURR DUUR EVERY AMERICAN IS ONE PERSON!
OBSESSED, OBSESSED, OBSESSED, SAY IT WITH ME EUROFAGS. O B S E S S E D.

>>10243642
oh yeah the initial blast vapoized people. but radiation sickness was a major thing.

>>10243659
I am obsessed because you do funny things.

>>10243487
That was clearly fake, they used identical images for the "purified water" plant on different days. Which is pretty sad, since they could have easily just not watered or given sunlight to the microwave plant to do the fake, or used fertilizer on one but not the other to fake a growth difference, or even straight up poisoned the microwave one.

>>10243487
Why are Yuropoors so poor?

>>10243633
They microwaved the water, saw both plants working fine and decided that science is bullshit and killed the microwave plant so the control looked better because of daddy issues.

are you stupid?
of course boiling water kill plants

>The central issue with the microwave oven is the way it corrupts the DNA in the food. In this way, the human body does not recognize it, but it wraps it in fat cells in order to protect from the dead food.

"wraps it in fat cells" ??
"dead food" ??

>>10243688
>DNA in water

>>10243665
If you think not being a fucking cuck slave like most eurofags are is funny then I am a professional comedian.

>>10243635
Or Fema not buying coffins end masse just 'burial vaults' or something like that

>>10243618
So that nice boy who made a clock wasn't really inventing the first digital clock?

>>10243652
the data I collected does not support the hypothesis that microwaving babies is OK

>>10243691
You're clearly not listening to this carefully conducted research from Tennessee.

>>10243622
Japanese water is slightly irradiated due to naturally occurring deposits of weeabooium in the bedrock. Similar to radon in the U.S.

look at all the kiddies take the rotten old bait

>>10243573
>vibrating the molecules which are the same size as the wavelength of microwaves
No that's not right, the water molecules are much smaller than the wavelengths in the microwave region of the spectrum.

The microwaves excite the rotational modes of the water molecules.

>>10243719
Sause? Looks funny

>>10244287
pretty sure its from stargate (the series)

>>10243487
>(NaturalNews) An experiment conducted at home for a high school science fair five years ago has verified the dangers of microwave oven

The absolute state of vegan media and science.

Correct. SG-1 specifically, Samantha Carter is pictured.

You need a kettle to boil water? Put it on any water holding vessel you normally cook liquids in and heat it on the stove.

>>10243635

Microwaves are literally radio waves you dumb ass piece of shit.

>>10245042

Kettles are the fastest way to boil water

>>10243487
Let the water cool before watering the plant you dumb fuck

>>10245042
You need a stove to heat water? Put it in the microwave.

>>10245083
^^^he doesn't own a reactor

>>10245091
You need a microwave to heat water? I just use my garlic press

>>10244225
Actually the vibrational-rotational modes.
