← ScienceWhich outcome occurs for an observer under constant acceleration?
A)Experiencing a gravitational field locally✓
B)An absolute inertial reference frame
C)Constant redshift of observed light
D)No relativistic time dilation observed
💡 Explanation
Acceleration generates a local gravitational field via the equivalence principle; because inertial mass equals gravitational mass, acceleration is indistinguishable from gravity to the accelerating observer. Therefore, a gravitational field is detected, rather than constant gravitational redshift occurring under different conditions.
