← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when a dense object curves spacetime?
A)Light path becomes slightly bent✓
B)Neutron decay increases rapidly
C)Time reverses near the object
D)Spacetime remains perfectly Euclidean
💡 Explanation
Spacetime distortion near massive objects causes gravity via geodesic deviation; light follows those curves. Therefore, the light bends, because photons follow the curvature of spacetime, rather than continuing in a straight trajectory as predicted in Newtonian physics.
