← ScienceWhich outcome arises on the International Space Station because of gravitational equivalence?
A)Time dilation relative to Earth✓
B)Enhanced Coriolis force magnitude
C)Reduced atmospheric drag component
D)Increased radiation exposure overall
💡 Explanation
Time dilation happens because the ISS orbits further from Earth's gravitational field and moves at high velocity, leading to a weaker net spacetime curvature; therefore, time on the ISS passes slightly faster relative to Earth, rather than other altitude effects.
