Which consequence results when GPS satellite clocks experience minimal gravitational influence?

A)Incorrect navigational calculation accumulate rapidly.
B)Reduced accuracy for signal triangulation occurs.
C)Accurate timekeeping is preserved absolutely.
D)Precise data transmission becomes corrupted inevitably.

💡 Explanation

Neglecting gravitational time dilation stemming from spacetime curvature causes cumulative GPS errors because the satellites experience less aggressive slowing of time compared to ground stations, therefore positional calculations lose accuracy rather than remaining accurate under relativistic effects alone.
