← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when two observers experience different gravitational potentials?
A)Time elapses at different rates✓
B)The speed of light changes
C)Planck's constant varies locally
D)Charge conservation is locally violated
💡 Explanation
Differences in gravitational potential affect time because General Relativity states that gravitational fields are equivalent to accelerated frames of reference resulting in gravitational time dilation; therefore, time passes at different rates, rather than other fundamental constants changing locally.
