Which consequence results when extreme compaction distorts spacetime?

💡 Explanation

Gravitational waves occur because mass-energy distorts spacetime; this distortion propagates as waves during events such as stellar collapse. Therefore, waves emanate outwards, rather than other options, because it's the direct outcome of spacetime deformation.
