← ScienceWhich outcome results when a black hole's tidal forces act upon an infalling object?
A)Spaghettification due to differential gravity✓
B)Quantum entanglement of virtual particles
C)Hawking radiation increases sharply
D)Event horizon shifts inward rapidly
💡 Explanation
Spaghettification occurs because extreme tidal forces, a consequence of spacetime curvature, cause immense stretching parallel to the gravitational field and compression perpendicular to it. Therefore, objects distort dramatically rather than remaining intact because differential gravity far exceeds material strength.
