← ScienceWhich mechanism influences atomic clock readings across significant spacetime curvature?
A)Gravitational time dilation✓
B)Quantum entanglement disruption
C)Electrostatic field distortion
D)Cosmic microwave background anisotropy
💡 Explanation
Gravitational time dilation affects atomic clock frequencies due to the variation in gravitational potential causing different spacetime curvature; therefore, the clocks tick at different rates rather than because of quantum effects or background radiation.
