← ScienceWhich mechanism describes electromagnetic beam bending near blackholes?
A)Spacetime geodesic deviation effect✓
B)Frame dragging from general relativity
C)Gravitational self-lensing amplification
D)Schwarzschild radius photon sphere capture
💡 Explanation
Electromagnetic radiation bends due to spacetime curvature. Because different paths experience varying gravitational potentials, the relative rate of clocks differs, therefore the geodesic deviation effect explains beam bending, rather than effects only affecting massive objects.
