To further complicate things, UV only causes damage at certain wavelengths right?
So maybe part of the issue is that "UV" or "Microwave" are too broad as categories to make a statement like "Microwaves are totally safe"
- jjoonathan 3y agoUVA and UVC are separated by 5x. UV and RF are separated by 1000000x.
- SigmundA 3y agoPretty simple the higher the wavelength the higher the photon energy and the more likely to cause non-thermal effects. Microwaves have very low photon energy far below any mechanism known to cause non-thermal effects. RF can heat you based on power absorption that is all.
