← ScienceWhich instability arises when the Schwarzschild radius nears a neutron star's physical radius?
A)Spontaneous Hawking radiation emission
B)Uncontrolled spacetime metric distortion✓
C)Internal core composition shift
D)Increased surface fusion ignition
💡 Explanation
Uncontrolled spacetime metric distortion results from spacetime curvature increasing without bound as predicted by general relativity's equivalence principle; because mass-energy equivalence dictates that higher density warps spacetime more, therefore a black hole forms rather than only composition changes because gravity dominates.
