Difference between Tidal force and Tidal heating

Tidal force vs. Tidal heating

The tidal force is an apparent force that stretches a body towards the center of mass of another body due to a gradient (difference in strength) in gravitational field from the other body; it is responsible for the diverse phenomena, including tides, tidal locking, breaking apart of celestial bodies and formation of ring systems within Roche limit, and in extreme cases, spaghettification of objects. Tidal heating (also known as tidal working or tidal flexing) occurs through the tidal friction processes: orbital energy is dissipated as heat in either the surface ocean or interior of a planet or satellite.

Similarities between Tidal force and Tidal heating

Tidal force and Tidal heating have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Io (moon), Tidal acceleration, Tidal locking.

Io (moon)

Io (Jupiter I) is the innermost of the four Galilean moons of the planet Jupiter.

Tidal acceleration

Tidal acceleration is an effect of the tidal forces between an orbiting natural satellite (e.g. the Moon), and the primary planet that it orbits (e.g. Earth).

Tidal locking

Tidal locking (also called gravitational locking or captured rotation) occurs when the long-term interaction between a pair of co-orbiting astronomical bodies drives the rotation rate of at least one of them into the state where there is no more net transfer of angular momentum between this body (e.g. a planet) and its orbit around the second body (e.g. a star); this condition of "no net transfer" must be satisfied over the course of one orbit around the second body.

Tidal force and Tidal heating Comparison

Tidal force has 45 relations, while Tidal heating has 19. As they have in common 3, the Jaccard index is 4.69% = 3 / (45 + 19).
