Which outcome arises when light bends near massive objects?

A)Spacetime curvature alters light's path.
B)Redshift increases due to gravity.
C)Refraction shifts optical frequencies.
D)Diffraction patterns show altered intensities.

💡 Explanation

Spacetime curvature bends light's trajectory via the equivalence principle, because gravity warps spacetime near massive objects. Therefore, photons follow curved paths, rather than maintaining straight lines, because gravity affects all forms of mass-energy equally.
