← ScienceWhich phenomenon causes increased clock rate differences approaching a black hole?
A)Gravitational time dilation✓
B)Extreme tidal forces
C)Hawking radiation emission
D)Spacetime frame dragging
💡 Explanation
Gravitational time dilation increases as curvature intensifies because strong gravity affects the passage of time; therefore the nearby clock runs slower, rather than tidal forces which would disrupt mechanical clocks independently of relativity.
