Yes. I think you can microwave just about anything that will fit inside one. Now, before you do this, the question should be, "Is is safe to microwave a Golf ball?". To this I would answer that it would totally depend on the time, 10 secs. vs. 5 mins., to which I would answer that the former would probably do nothing and latter could be potentially harmful and possibly dangerous. I would not do it.

Yes, you can but the outside of the ball ( the hair ) would melt.

Even the inside core could start to melt.

I wouldn't do it if I were you

How long does a tennis ball last?

A tennis ball may deteriorate for a number of reasons, including usage (i.e., being hit) and the environment (i.e., heat and humidity). Left alone, a tennis ball would, eventually, lose air through osmosis of the rubber core and felt coverings. When struck, the air is forced out little by little. Heat forces air to escape more quickly, and the effects of humidity and being struck wear out the felt covering, as well as causing tiny cracks and holes in the felt and rubber from which air will escape.


What happens when you heat methanol in a microwave?

Heating methanol in a microwave can cause it to vaporize and potentially ignite, leading to a fire or explosion hazard. It is not safe to heat flammable liquids like methanol in a microwave as it can result in serious safety issues.


Why is a tennis ball bouncy?

Under the fuzzy exterior of a tennis ball is a rubber "shell". Rubber has a natural bouncy quality, but it's the compressed air inside the rubber shell that gives it that extra bounce. If you ever heat up a screwdriver and push it through the tennis ball, you should hear the air hissing out, or whooshing out in some circumstances. Hope this helped, Chris
