Which effect increases on a satellite clock due to gravitational time dilation?

A)Accumulated phase shift in signal
B)Increased computational error rate
C)Reduced energy consumption within system
D)Decreased telemetry data packet loss

💡 Explanation

Gravitational time dilation affects spacetime around a mass because of the equivalence principle; a higher altitude means faster clock ticking. Thus, time dilation causes an increasing phase shift compared to ground clocks, rather than other electronic malfunctions, therefore shifts are noted.
