Which outcome occurs for photons traversing strong gravitational fields?

💡 Explanation

Gravitational redshift increases, because photons lose energy escaping gravity via the principle of equivalence. The photon's frequency decreases, therefore, as gravitational potential increases, causing redshift, rather than blueshift, which would correspond to an energy gain.
