Answer:

The correct option is C

C) 1020 waves per second

Step-by-step explanation:

The frequencies and waveslengths of all the electromagnetic waves can easily be found by looking at the diagram of the selectromagnetic spectrum. If we notice the electromagnetic spectrum, we come to know that gamma rays have the highest frequency, about 10²⁰ Hz and the shortest wavelengths.

Therefore, a gamma knife will produces rays of about 10²⁰ waves per seconds
