Examples

“Many radar systems use ⟳ a combination of radio waves and microwaves.”

“Microwaves do not follow ⟳ the curvature of the earth, but travel ⟳ in a straight line. They must therefore have ⟳ unobstructed "line of sight" and the dish aerials have ⟳ to be sited on towers or high buildings, on high ground, or a combination of all three.”

“Just put ⟳ it in the microwave for 30 seconds and it's ready to eat ⟳.”
