← ScienceWhich mechanism causes deviations in atomic clock rates near massive geological formations?
A)Gravitational time dilation✓
B)Quantum entanglement fluctuation
C)Doppler effect amplification
D)Electromagnetic field interference
💡 Explanation
The atomic clock's rate slows due to gravitational time dilation because spacetime curvature increases near mass therefore the clock ticks slower near the formation rather than changes from quantum effects or Doppler shifts.
