← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when extremely high-density matter causes spacetime distortion?
A)Gravitational lensing of distant light✓
B)Increased vacuum permittivity locally
C)Temporal superposition of quantum states
D)Decreased speed of particle propagation
💡 Explanation
The relativistic effect of spacetime distortion near high-density matter causes photons to travel along curved paths in what is known as gravitational lensing, because gravity bends spacetime rather than vacuum changes. Therefore lensing occurs near blackholes rather than changed permittivity.
