← ScienceWhich consequence occurs when precise atomic clocks experience spacetime curvature?
A)Time dilation affects clock rates✓
B)Clock self-calibration maintains synchrony
C)Inertial frame dragging aligns
D)Quantum entanglement causes perfect correlation
💡 Explanation
Spacetime curvature induces time dilation; because gravity affects the rate of time's passage, a stronger gravitational field causes slower clock rates. Precise atomic clocks tick at different rates rather than staying synchronous, therefore creating discrepancy differences, not alternative effects from quantum entanglement.
