← ScienceWhich consequence results when gravity distorts spacetime near a supermassive object?
A)Time dilates for distant observers✓
B)Tidal forces induce spaghettification
C)Gravitational waves lose amplitude
D)Density increases at event horizon
💡 Explanation
Time dilation happens because, according to Einstein's equivalence principle, gravity warps spacetime; therefore, time passes slower in stronger gravitational fields due to cumulative differences in reference frames, rather than space being compressed at horizons.
