← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when a gyroscope spins near a black hole?
A)Frame-dragging alters its precession✓
B)Gyroscope spontaneously super-conducts
C)Material transitions into strange matter
D)Increased emission Hawking radiation
💡 Explanation
Frame-dragging creates a change in spacetime near massive, rotating objects because the rotating object 'drags' spacetime around with it; therefore the gyroscope's precession changes due to frame-dragging, rather than superconductivity since temperatures decrease, or a change to more exotic states which are not caused by gyroscopic motion.
