Which effect occurs on a spacecraft's atomic clock orbiting a dense neutron star?

💡 Explanation

Time slows on the spacecraft because the extreme gravity near a neutron star induces gravitational time dilation, a consequence of the equivalence principle; therefore, the clock ticks slower rather than other effects, because time dilation is dominant in strong gravitational fields.
