What kind of energy does friction have?
Friction is NOT energy. Friction is a FORCE (rather than a form of energy). It can be used in the formula: W = F·d where "W" stands for work (which IS energy), F stands for force (like friction), and "d" stands for distance over which the force is exerted. Typically when friction is present some kind of energy of motion such as mechanical energy or kinetic energy or potential energy is being transformed into heat.
What kind of surface increase friction?
energy
What kind of surface would increase friction?
energy
What kind of energy does friction cause?
heat/thermal
Friction normally converts mechanical kinetic energy into what kind of energy?
heat
What energy is produced used in overcoming friction?
Mechanical energy is used, and thermal energy is produced
What kind of energy conversions happen when you skateboard?
friction, heat, kinematic
How is friction good and bad?
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.
What kind of energy is used in burning a match?
When you light a match, chemical energy is transformed to thermal energy, primarily by oxidation. When you actually strike it, the triggering energy is mechanical energy that creates heat through friction to begin the oxidation process (combustion).
What energy changes the friction in a car?

What kind of energy is there when a marble rolls across a flat floor?
air resistance and friction
What term used with energy or friction that implies motion?
