← ScienceWhich mechanism curves spacetime near a black hole?
A)Gravitational redshift exaggerates photon wavelengths✓
B)Spacetime distortions maximise information density
C)Quantum entanglement tunnels through event horizons
D)Hawking radiation evaporates the black hole
💡 Explanation
Gravitational redshift alters photon wavelengths through spacetime because the extreme gravity causes time dilation. Therefore, photons lose energy climbing out of the black hole's gravitational well, distorting the electromagnetic spectrum, rather than directly influencing other exotic processes.
