← ScienceWhich distortion is observed when massive objects warp spacetime?
A)Gravitational lensing of distant light✓
B)Increased chemical reaction rate
C)Doppler shift of emitted sound
D)Superfluid helium undergoes phase transition
💡 Explanation
Gravitational lensing redirects light through spacetime because the mass warps the spacetime fabric near it. Therefore, photons follow curves, rather than refracting due to density because spacetime bends altering the shortest path.
