Give an example of thermal energy?
When you rub two things together, like your hands, thermal energy is produced. This is a result of the friction.
Which type of energy is the mechanical energy of the car converted?
Most of it will be converted to heat, via friction.
What Can cause kinetic energy to change to thermal energy?
Friction can cause kinetic energy to change into thermal energy
What is the source of thermal energy in an internal combustion chamber?
The output of every internal combustion engine is usually thought of as kinetic energy, but as a byproduct, thermal energy also is expelled as a result of the combustion of hydrocarbons. The primary fuel source. Additionally, much kinetic energy is also lost as a result of friction thereby also creating a thermal energy. So although the sources of both seem different, there would be no friction without first there being kinetic energy as a result of the combustion of hydrocarbon and oxygen.
Does friction produce thermal energy?
Yes

Yes
When an object loses kinetic energy due to a force of kinetic friction is the loss of kinetic energy transformed primarily into potential or thermal energy?
Kinetic friction is associated with thermal energy (and sound or light).
When is Thermal Energy waste?
An example: When applying the brakes on a moving car (kinetic energy,) the Brake Pads and Disks heat (thermal energy) from the friction, as do the tires and the road (again, friction. All the Thermal Energy created, is waste or wasted.
How is a rubbing your hands together an example of thermal energy?
This is an example of mechanical friction creating thermal energy
What do brakes do?
A vehicals brakes convert kinetic energy into thermal energy through friction and dissipate the thermal energy into the atmosphere
Does friction causes mechanical energy to be transformed into potential energy?
Thermal
