← ScienceWhich outcome results when spacetime curvature focuses gravitational waves?
A)Refractive amplification of wave amplitude✓
B)Destructive interference cancels wave energy
C)Wave frequency reduces towards zero
D)Increased dark matter annihilation rates
💡 Explanation
Gravitational lensing causes focusing; gravitational waves follow geodesics distorted by spacetime curvature, causing constructive interference, therefore amplifying the wave amplitude rather than cancelling it, because frequency shifts pertain to Doppler effects.
