← ScienceWhich outcome is observed when light traverses near large gravitational fields?
A)Light bends due to spacetime curvature✓
B)Frequency increases due to Doppler shift
C)Wavelength decreases light refracts matter
D)Intensity reduction isotropic diffraction occurs
💡 Explanation
Light follows the curves in spacetime caused by gravity, therefore light's path bends because the curvature mechanism steers photons along geodesics, rather than a straight line through flat space because there are variations in refractive indexes.
