That would be Friction. (:

The unbalanced force that opposes motion between touching surfaces is called friction. It acts in the opposite direction of the applied force and depends on the nature of the surfaces and the force pressing them together. Friction can be reduced by using lubricants or by increasing the smoothness of the surfaces.

What is a force that opposes motion between surfaces that are tuching?
Friction is an opposing force; the kinetic energy of the movement of the two touching surface will be converted to heat energy.
