The microwaves in an oven are of a specific frequency that will heat the water molecules contained in food.(This is why most plastics and glass do not become hot in a microwave oven-they do not contain watermolecules.) This frequency is about\({\bf{3}} \times {\bf{1}}{{\bf{0}}^{\bf{9}}}{\rm{ }}{\bf{Hz}}\). What is the energy of one photon in these microwaves?
