← ScienceWhich effect causes clock drift near black holes?
A)Gravitational time dilation✓
B)Frame dragging enhancement
C)Event horizon polarization
D)Hawking radiation increase
💡 Explanation
Gravitational time dilation alters spacetime near massive objects because strong gravity warps spacetime, causing time to slow relative to distant observers; therefore, clocks drift due to relative time differences, rather than frame dragging or Hawking radiation, which are different effects.
