Cutaway view of the closed oven. Water is one common polar molecule, and dissolved ions can move. Other ingredients may respond weakly or strongly too.
Tap the field. The lopsided molecules turn, collide, and share energy with neighbors.
Change the responsive fraction in one anonymous sample. Its material makeup—not the dish name—controls where field energy lands.
Tap time forward. First the food gains energy; later heat crosses into the touching dish.
One pancake, same thickness and wave field. Its left half is moist; its right half is dry.
One pancake has a moist half and a dry half.
Where does the microwave deposit more energy first?
Choose, then run a short burst and watch the energy map before heat spreads sideways.
