← ScienceWhich effect dominates near a rotating black hole's event horizon?
A)Spacetime curvature pulls masses inwards✓
B)Hawking radiation dissipates energy outward
C)Frame-dragging destabilizes stellar orbits
D)Gravitational lensing distorts image shapes
💡 Explanation
Extreme spacetime curvature near the event horizon causes matter to be pulled inevitably inwards, since the intense warping of spacetime creates geodesic paths directed towards the singularity; therefore, matter falls inward rather than orbiting stably, because alternative paths exist but pull matter away.
