← ScienceWhich gravitational effect increases around a neutron star?
A)Spacetime curvature becomes increasingly significant✓
B)Tidal forces experience a negligible increase
C)Gravitational redshift asymptotically approaches zero
D)Orbital periods remain consistent at any distance
💡 Explanation
As mass increases, spacetime around a neutron star curves to a greater extent because mass-energy equivalence dictates the influence of density on spacetime; therefore, the curvature increases, influencing light paths and clocks near massive objects significantly, rather than negligible changes in other gravitational phenomena.
