Which effect occurs on an accelerating spacecraft’s spacetime?

A)Spacetime contracts isotropically near the front.
B)Spacetime warps more near spacecraft’s rear.
C)Spacetime expands isotropically far away.
D)Spacetime twists and forms knotted structure.

💡 Explanation

Gravitational time dilation affects measurements; acceleration induces a locally equivalent gravitational field, and the **principle of equivalence** causes stronger gravitational effects closer to spacecraft's rear. Therefore, spacetime warps more near the spacecraft's rear, rather than other points, because of acceleration effects.
