Science

Which outcome occurs when a satellite orbits a black hole at the innermost stable circular orbit?

A)Tidal forces spaghettify the satellite.
B)Increased fuel efficiency is achieved.
C)Gravitational waves cease radiating outwards.
D)Communications maintain consistent time references.

💡 Explanation

The black hole's tidal forces increase dramatically near the innermost co-orbit because differential gravitational attraction creates forces that pull unevenly across the object. This tidal force causes extreme stretching, therefore the satellite disintegrates rather than achieving orbital stability,communications, or stopping waves.
