Which type of wave from the electromagnetic spectrum are used in heat lamps and heat sensing devices?
Infrared waves from the electromagnetic spectrum are used in heat lamps and heat sensing devices.
What electromagnetic wave is used to view inside the body?
Most commonly, X-Rays.
What forms of energy are in a microwave?
Electrical converted to electromagnetic waves.
What are the common name of electromagnetic waves?
The common name for electromagnetic waves is just that: "electromagnetic waves". There is no other commonly used term. Specific parts of the spectrum have common names, for example light (or visible light), radio waves, x-rays, etc. - but none of this means exactly the same as "electromagnetic waves". Visible light, for instance, is just one type (or frequency range) of electromagnetic waves.
What part of the electromagnetic spectrum is used in ovens?
In a microwave oven, we find that microwave energy (from the microwave portion of the electromagnetic spectrum) are used. In a conventional oven, gas or electricity is used to create infrared heat, so we find infrared radiation (from the infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, which is just below the visible light or optical portion) used there. If the oven happens to be a combination microwave and conventional, we'll find both types of electromagnetic waves generated for use inside.

What energy transformations occur if final form of the energy is Heat from an electric stove?
So is the "heat" radiant heat, an electromagnetic wave? (Heat is used to mean many things.) Electricity gets turned into the electromagnetic infrared (heat).

Can frozen popcorn be used in popcorn machine?
Most likely yes. But why would you freeze popcorn in the first place? You may find that when frozen popcorn is put in a popcorn machine, the outside of the kernals will "cook" much quicker than the insides will heat up. This means that they kernals may end up burnt on the outside before the oil inside the kernal has reached a heat that will make it pop. This may result in burnt popcorn.
Where is a Bunsen Burner commonly used?
A Chemistry laboratory, to heat things.
