← ScienceWhich consequence results when spacetime curvature increases near a black hole?
A)Extreme tidal forces spaghettify matter✓
B)Hawking radiation emission sharply reduces
C)Event horizon radius slowly shrinks
D)Frame dragging nearly ceases entirely
💡 Explanation
Increased curvature of spacetime near a black hole leads to larger gravitational gradients; the differential forces cause extreme tidal forces because objects experience much stronger attraction on the near side as the mechanism. Therefore, matter is stretched or ‘spaghettified’ rather than remaining intact.
