Rubing two pieces of wood together rapidly and consistently can cause enough friction to heat the wood to the point of ignition. However these days I doubt if there are many aboriginals that would light a fire that way. a lighter is much easier.
Friction always wastes energy and heat is produced

Rubbing things together creates heat. Enough heat, and stuff like wood catches fire. It's a way of starting fires that's almost always available, if you have the skill and some suitable pieces of wood. You don't need any special lighting equipment like matches, lighters, or flint and steel.

By cracking two pieces of Flint causing sparks against dry tinder or FleeceAnswerEither by getting fire from a naturally occurring fire (eg lightning strike causes grass/bush fire) and keeping coals from it to start another; or by creating their own using the heat from friction (rubbing sticks together)
When a comb is brought near pieces of paper, the comb might attract small bits of paper due to static electricity. This occurs because rubbing the comb against hair or fabric creates a charge imbalance on the comb, causing it to become temporarily charged and attract light objects like pieces of paper.
It would take several thin light glass pieces stacked together to achieve the same effect as one thick dark glass. The number would depend on the specific properties of the glass, such as thickness and light transmittance.
People in the Stone Age made fire by rubbing sticks together, using flint and pyrite to create sparks, or by striking rocks together to create friction. Fire was essential for cooking food, keeping warm, and protecting against predators.
The individual pieces of light are called photons. Photons are the basic unit of light and are a type of elementary particle.
A screw used to hold two pieces of wood together, and a screw used to attach a light bulb in a lamp are common examples of screws.
