No; heavy cream has a higher fat content. Granted, it is a pretty subtle difference (at least 36 percent fat in heavy cream and at least 30 percent in whipping cream), but it's important if you're making something that's going to keep its shape—the higher fat content in heavy cream makes it more suitable for those jobs. That extra fat also makes it more resistant to curdling in sauces.
And if you're wondering where heavy whipping cream fits into all this, don't worry, it's just the same as heavy cream.

Heavy cream and heavy whipping cream are essentially the same thing, and both must contain at least 36% or more milk fat. Whipping cream, or light whipping cream, is lighter (as you'd expect) and contains 30% to 35% milk fat.

∙ 10y agoNo. Light cream typically has a lower fat content than whipping cream (though a higher content than half and half). Fat content can vary, but typically light cream is at about 20-30% fat, whereas heavy (whipping) cream is at 30-36%. Because of the lower proportion of fat to liquid, light cream does not whip. You can whip it all day and it will basically just look like foamy milk.

No Whipping cream is whipped vs. heavy cream is just very heavy. i tried drinking it as is once to see... I was curious... and yes it was very very heavy. I felt it in my heart. Like I was destroying it by drinking this cream. That is how heavy it was.

∙ 11y agoNo. While many people use Cool Whip as a substitute for sweetened whipped cream, Cool Whip is a non-dairy product made from oil.
Whipping cream is a heavy (high-fat) cream that you'll probably find near the milk in your supermarket. Some recipes call for it as-is; other times, you'll whip it (by hand or with an electric mixer) until it is thick and fluffy to make whipped cream.

I always thought that heavy cream is what naturally forms, and whipped cream is formed using artificial pressure

Are cream and whipping cream interchangeable?
In the UK, whipping cream is just a type of cream sold for whipping. (And actually, double cream works better for whipped cream toppings). Whipped cream is a type of fresh cream, in the sense that double cream, single cream, clotted cream etc... are all types of fresh cream. Whipped cream is not "the same as" fresh cream, it is a member of the "fresh cream" group. If a recipe just says "serve with fresh cream", it's best just to pick a type of cream that suits your needs (i.e pourable or non-pourable).
What is the difference between heavy whipping cream and regular whipping cream?
