Which effect influences a GPS satellite when gravitational field strength increases?

💡 Explanation

Spacetime curvature near Earth influences GPS satellites timing because gravitational time dilation causes clocks to tick slower in stronger gravitational fields. Therefore, atomic clocks slow down, rather than orbital changes, because orbital mechanics dominate over other effects.
