← ScienceWhich outcome occurs more intensely near dense objects, exhibiting the principle of equivalence?
A)Gravitational redshift of emitted photons✓
B)Increased rate of radioactive decay
C)Blueshift of emitted radar signals
D)Enhanced efficiency of solar cells
💡 Explanation
Gravitational redshift increases because emitted photons lose energy as they climb out of a gravitational well, thus reducing frequency per the principle of equivalence. Therefore, redshift occurs, rather than blueshift (increasing) and radioactive decay/photovoltaic effects are unaffected.
