A. it can be modified or rejected
Answer:
MATERIAL MEDIUM
Explanation:
Wave is a disturbance that travels through a medium and transfer energy from one point to another without causing any permanent displacement of the medium itself. The two forms of wave are the mechanical wave and the electromagnetic waves.
Mechanical wave is a wave with requires MATERIAL MEDIUM for its propagation. This means that before wave can be propagated at times, material medium is needed e.g a ripple tank. A ripple tank is a mechanical device that generates waves using an instrument called stroboscope attached to it. This kind of wave requires an external source before it can propagate compared to electromagnetic waves that does not require material medium for its propagation.
Here refrigerator removes 55 kcal heat from freezer
Refrigerator releases 73.5 kcal heat to surrounding
So here we can use energy conservation principle by II Law of thermodynamics
the law says that

here we know that
= heat released to the surrounding
= heat absorbed from freezer
W = work done by the compressor
now using above equation we can write



So here compressor has to do 18.5 k cal work on it
