Science

Which phenomenon causes increased clock rate at lower geopotential?

A)Gravitational time dilation
B)Special relativistic effects
C)Frame dragging perturbation
D)Cosmological constant expansion

💡 Explanation

Gravitational time dilation makes clocks run slower in stronger gravitational fields, because the principle of equivalence dictates gravity warps spacetime more near massive bodies; therefore clocks run faster as height decreases, rather than special relativity predominating.
