Answer to Question 1

When salt is added to water, it changes the microwave heating characteristics in two different directions. 1) Salt will increase the water's loss factor, and 2) salt will decrease the penetration depth of the microwaves.

Answer to Question 2

Microwaves generate heat inside a food due to water friction.
