← ScienceWhich phenomenon demonstrates how inertial mass arises because of spacetime curvature?
A)Gravitational redshift of electromagnetic radiation✓
B)Precession of Mercury's orbit around Sun
C)Momentum increase shown by Fizeau experiment
D)Diffraction patterns arising via Huygens's principle
💡 Explanation
When electromagnetic radiation climbs from a massive object, it loses energy, reducing its frequency, thus demonstrating Gravitational Redshift; this shows inertial mass increase due to equivalence principle, therefore confirming spacetime curvature contributions, rather than explaining precession (B) or momentum (C).
