← ScienceWhich consequence results when a spinning black hole distorts spacetime?
A)Frame-dragging causes orbiting matter✓
B)Hawking radiation stops spontaneously
C)Event horizon size sharply decreases
D)Spacetime becomes uniformly isotropic
💡 Explanation
Frame-dragging occurs near rotating black holes because the extreme gravitational field causes the rotating mass to pull spacetime around with it. Therefore, objects near the black hole are forced to co-rotate, rather than following Newtonian orbits through static spacetime.
