← ScienceWhich effect upon electromagnetic radiation results when passing near blackhole?
A)Gravitational lensing causes frequency redshift✓
B)Compton scattering decreases energy gain
C)Cherenkov radiation indicates charged particles
D)Bremsstrahlung emission enables signal detection
💡 Explanation
Gravitational lensing causes frequency redshift of radiation wavelengths, because spacetime curvature bends electromagnetic waves; therefore, redshifting increases, rather than processes like Compton scattering, which require direct collisions or other mechanisms under different energetic conditions.
