← ScienceWhich manifestation arises due to spatial curvature near blackholes?
A)Gravitational lensing distorts distant objects✓
B)Increased atmospheric density causes drag
C)Electromagnetic breakdown forms plasma
D)Tidal forces stabilize orbital velocities
💡 Explanation
Gravitational lensing occurs because photons follow curved paths in spacetime near massive objects. The mechanism is spacetime curvature, distorting observed images; therefore lensing happens, rather than density changes affecting drag effects, where pressure causes deviation.
