← ScienceWhich consequence increases drastically because of tidal locking?
A)Permanent temperature gradient establishes✓
B)Synchronous orbit slowly degrades
C)Magnetic dynamo weakens rapidly
D)Volcanism abruptly ceases completely
💡 Explanation
A tidally locked body experiences extreme temperature differences due to asymmetric solar heating; the mechanism maintains a strong temperature gradient. Therefore, a thermal gradient establishes permanently, rather than magnetic variance, because energy redistribution remains constant.
