← ScienceWhich mechanism causes increased orbital precession near a black hole?
A)Spacetime curvature concentrates gravitational force✓
B)Velocity-dependent mass generates inertia
C)Bremmstrahlung radiates energy as photons
D)Frame dragging causes azimuthal momentum transfer
💡 Explanation
Increased orbital precession occurs because strong spacetime curvature concentrates gravitational force; Kepler's laws deviate significantly, therefore, orbits precess more near black holes, rather than following Newtonian elliptical paths governed by mass alone.
