Which frequency shift occurs due to relativistic effects on electromagnetic wave emitted from rotating pulsar?

A)Gravitational redshift increases measured period
B)Doppler blueshift decreases observed period
C)Time dilation lengthens pulsation intervals
D)Synchrotron emission widens spectral lines

💡 Explanation

Time dilation causes the lengthening of pulsation intervals, because accelerating frames experience slower time; therefore the observed period is longer rather than spectral broadening or redshift induced by gravity because those affect wave properties differently.
