← ScienceWhich consequence results when gravity warps space-time near objects?
A)Inertial mass increase due to equivalence✓
B)Increased quantum tunneling probability
C)Reduced electron orbital angular momentum
D)Decreased neutrino flavor oscillation rate
💡 Explanation
Objects accelerate in curved space identically to accelerated frames because of the equivalence principle. The accelerated masses see an effectively equivalent gravitational field, experienced as inertial mass increase, therefore mass increases, rather than quantum/atomic effects that aren't fundamentally linked.
