← ScienceWhich mechanism causes increased signal distortion as light approaches black hole?
A)Gravitational lensing✓
B)Quantum decoherence
C)Refractive dispersion
D)Chromatic aberration
💡 Explanation
Space has curvature because massive objects warp spacetime, and gravitational lensing occurs because light beams bend toward stronger gravitational fields. Therefore signal distortion increases, rather than only influencing coherence, because lensing is path-dependent within the gravitational field.
