← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when gravity warps light paths?
A)Lensing effects magnify distant objects✓
B)Blueshift increases energy substantially
C)Time slows near black holes
D)Gravitational waves lose coherence
💡 Explanation
Gravitational lensing occurs because spacetime's curvature bends space, according to Einstein's General Relativity. This bends light paths near massive objects, therefore objects behind them can appear magnified and distorted, rather than experiencing a blueshift without spatial distortion.
