Expert Solution
Concept and Principle:
  • Time is not absolute, it depends on the speed and gravitational field present. The time measured will be slower when there is a large gravitational field present.

 

  • When the clock is closer to the gravitational source slower the time measured. This effect is called gravitational time dilation.

 

  • Gravitational time dilation is given by,

t=t012GMrc2

Here t is the change in time in the gravitationally influenced reference frame, t0 is the change in time in a reference frame an infinite distance from any mass (a "standard" hour), c is the speed of light, is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the object being approached, and r the distance from the object being approached
