Convection Popcorn Lab (10pts)

For this lab, we put a brown bag full of popcorn kernels into microwave, and then let the microwave do its job for a minute and thirty seconds. During that time, the microwave gave off radiations, which is the process in which energy is emitted as particles or waves. Radiation travels through space until it has reached a object to penetrate. In this case, the microwave emitted the radiation into the space in the microwave, and enough radiation eventually reached the popcorn kernels to the point at which they popped.
