← ScienceWhich mechanism causes increased radioactive decay observation rates when an atomic clock nears a black hole's event horizon?
A)Increased gravitational time dilation ✓
B)Hawking radiation absorption
C)Spacetime tidal force resonance
D)Quantum vacuum energy amplification
💡 Explanation
Increased gravitational time dilation occurs because the intense gravity near the black hole warps spacetime; therefore, time slows down for the atomic clock relative to a distant observer rather than other radiation effects.
