Friction is the interaction of (relatively) opposed matter and orbital electron energy caused to displace or vibrate thereby transferring sound (or noise) energy through the matter structure due to kinetic energy being displaced in interacting atomic structures. When friction is aplied, the energy between the object increases. It can create thermal energy(heat). Depending on the objects with friction applied, the types of energy created can differ.
Friction does not create energy. Energy is in fact used in overcoming friction. Friction in a machine or a vehicle, or drag on an aircraft, means that extra energy has to be supplied by the driving motor or engine. Friction causes heat to be produced, but this is not useful heat, it is lost to the environment, and increases the cost of running the machine or vehicle
here are some possible energy outputs depending on the degree of friction:
Heat energy- always
Sound energy
light energy(sparks)
Yes. Friction converts kinetic energy into other forms of energy, including heat energy. As the surface(s) rub together, a small thermal energy will be created.
Energy wasted due to friction is converted mostly to heat.
Friction can produce energy in the form of heat
false
Friction converts movement into unusable energy.
sort of but it really only slows energy down
Yes. Friction converts kinetic energy into other forms of energy, including heat energy. As the surface(s) rub together, a small thermal energy will be created.
No, energy transfer is not the same as friction.
You want high friction so that the energy lost to friction is converted to heat energy. The greater the friction, the greater the amount of energy coverted to heat (or sparks). So low friction means you will have to rub your two pieces of wood (or whatever you're using) together for much longer. Good luck!
Energy wasted due to friction is converted mostly to heat.
Friction can produce energy in the form of heat
Friction Is the Force that makes it harder for two things to move against one another. 1) When I rub my hands I make friction. 2) When friction is used , energy is produced.
false
because kinetic energy creates friction which will make the tempeture rise
Friction is good because it provides traction. Friction is necessary for people to stand, or for vehicles to accelerate or break. Friction can also be used to convert kinetic energy to heat or electrical energy. Friction can be bad because kinetic energy is can be lost to friction.
