Answer:

The radiation wavelength is  1.08 X 10⁻¹² m

Explanation:

Frequency is the ratio of speed of photon to its wavelength

F = c/λ

where;

c is the speed of the photon = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ is the wavelength of gamma ray = ?

F is the frequency of the gamma ray = 1/T

T is the period of radiation = 3.6x10⁻²¹ s

[tex]\frac{1}{T} = \frac{c}{\lambda}[/tex]

λ = T*C

λ = 3.6x10⁻²¹ *  3 x 10⁸

λ =  1.08 X 10⁻¹² m

Therefore, the radiation wavelength is  1.08 X 10⁻¹² m
