Microwave auditory effect

The microwave auditory effect is when you can hear noises coming from a microwaves. It happens because microwaves use radio waves to warm up food and those radio waves can vibrate tiny parts in your ears, like an amplifier. Those vibrations make sound, like buzzing or clicking. It's usually pretty quiet, but some people can hear it better than others.
