Answer:

Statement that is true about electromagnetic and mechanical waves is:

Option B: Mechanical waves must travel through a medium, but electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to travel.

Explanation:

'Electromagnetic' waves do not need any medium to travel whereas 'mechanical waves' need a medium or matter for transmission. Electromagnetic waves are produced by the 'vibrations' of the charged particles. They can even travel in vacuum.  

On the contrary, mechanical waves are caused by the 'wave amplitude'. Mechanical wave can travel in solid, liquid and gas and are considered to be periodic disturbance.

Thus, Option B is the most statement apt explaining the difference between electromagnetic and mechanical waves.

The ________ measures the amount of stress in a college student's life resulting from major life changes.
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

The Social Readjustment Rating Scale measures the amount of stress: in a College student's life resulting from major changes

In their early research, Holmes and Rahe (1967) concentrated on stressful situations and developed the Social Readjustment Rating Scale (SRRS) to measure an individual's exposure to stress. By assigning weighted life change units to specific events in a person's life, the scale Holmes and Rahe devised measures stress.

   By summing up the scores for each event experienced over the course of a year, a total value for stressful life events may be calculated.  A person has a 30% probability of experiencing stress if they have fewer than 150 life change units. 50% of people who experience 150 to 299 life change units will experience stress. A person has an 80% probability of having a stress-related ailment if they have more than 300 life units.
