Which gravitational consequence on photon energy arises because of the equivalence principle implemented within precise GPS satellite clocks at higher altitudes?

💡 Explanation

Gravitational redshift causes lower frequency photons as they lose energy escaping the gravitational well, because spacetime is dilated. Therefore, GPS satellite clocks require correction for time dilation effects experienced, rather than blue shift due to motion.
