← ScienceWhich mechanism affects observed spacetime coordinates near a neutron star?
A)Gravitational time dilation✓
B)Increased Compton scattering
C)Extreme tidal locking effects
D)Enhanced Hawking radiation emitted
💡 Explanation
Gravitational time dilation occurs near massive objects because their strong gravitational field curves spacetime; therefore, time appears to pass more slowly for an observer within the gravitational field of the neutron star, rather than other scattering mechanisms.
