← ScienceWhich gravitational effect occurs when light passes a stellar mass?
A)Spacetime curvature causes gravitational lensing✓
B)Orbital precession accelerates the light
C)Doppler shift reduces light frequency
D)Gravitational redshift increases luminosity
💡 Explanation
Spacetime is distorted by mass; the gravitational lensing effect arises from this curvature, bending light's path near massive stellar objects. Therefore, light is bent rather than intensified because the shape changes, despite the consistent motion.
