← ScienceWhich influence occurs because rotating black holes twist spacetime?
A)Lense-Thirring effect observed astronomically✓
B)Hawking radiation remains entirely negligible
C)Schwarzschild radius dramatically shrinks slower
D)Event horizon radiates extreme heat always
💡 Explanation
A rotating black hole drags spacetime, because frame-dragging creates the Lense-Thirring effect locally, therefore distant objects orbiting the Kerr black hole experience precession, rather than perfectly elliptical paths experienced orbiting Schwarzschild black holes.
