← ScienceWhich phenomenon causes increased geodesic deviation nearby black holes?
A)Spacetime curvature gradient✓
B)Increased virtual particle production
C)Hawking radiation polarization
D)Extreme inertial frame dragging
💡 Explanation
Increased geodesic deviation of initially parallel paths results from the spacetime curvature gradient, because strong gravity gradients distort spacetime near black holes. Therefore, tidal forces increase rather than a change in virtual particle production, whose effect is much less important.
