I believe it is exothermic energy...
Mechanical energy is changed to thermal energy. This is when you are rubbing your hands together to make heat.
Energy cannot be created nor destroyed. The change in temperature produced by rubbing your hands together is called friction, and it is the conversion of chemical energy in your cells into kinetic energy (The force that makes you rub your hands together) and that kinetic energy is partially converted into thermal energy. The conversion of kinetic to thermal is called friction.

Because of the Law of Conservation of Energy, when you transform energy, any amount of energy that gets lost as one type of energy must needs appear - in the same amount - as another type of energy.
because the rubbing creates static, this static is a type of electricity
thermal energychemical energy is transferred to thermal, sound, and motion energy. Thermal
Chemical energy
Basically, energy can't be created (or destroyed, for that matter). You can convert one type of energy to another. By the way, another thing that can't be created is electrical charges. When rubbing shoes on the carpet, electrical charges are separated.
Any type of movement is kinetic energy. Some of the energy is converted to the heat you feel.
