Is it possible to create friction with the rotation of the Earth to create energy?
There are several problems with your question-- namely, that friction doesn't "create" energy; nothing can (except via the mass-energy-equivalence formula). Friction would actually be more accurately be defined to be the force that causes the change of energy into heat energy. If you're asking if it would possible to create some kind of energy generator using the Earth's rotation as the power source, then I'm not entirely sure that would be possible. For one, you would somehow need to make the generator independent of the rotation of the Earth by hanging it either under some kind of balloon or in space-- both of which ideas seem highly tedious as cheaper and more available sources of energy exist (sun, wind, waves, etc.). Then you would need to set a kind of giant wheel on the Earth to power the generator as the Earth turns... I'm almost certain many countries will be adverse to the idea of a giant space wheel crawling across their territory once a day. A slightly more plausable idea would be to use Earth's natural magnetic field as an induction electricity generator. But who knows, maybe a couple years in the future you'll win the Nobel prize for this idea and I'll be sitting here saying, "hey! That's the guy I discouraged on the internet!". Good luck!
What else can I help you with?
Is the speed of earth's rotation slowing?
Yes. The energy from the tides ultimately comes from Earth's rotation; due to friction during the tides, Earth's rotation will logically get slower and slower.
What energy does friction make?
Friction is the interaction of (relatively) opposed matter and orbital electron energy caused to displace or vibrate thereby transferring sound (or noise) energy through the matter structure due to kinetic energy being displaced in interacting atomic structures. When friction is aplied, the energy between the object increases. It can create thermal energy(heat). Depending on the objects with friction applied, the types of energy created can differ.
What is causeing the rotation of the earthsto slow down?
Friction related to the tides. Since the energy that produces the tides comes from the Earth's rotation, it follows that whenever energy is lost in the tides, the Earth's rotation will slow down.Friction related to the tides.

Do ice and friction create any energy?
When ice melts due to friction, energy is converted from mechanical energy into thermal energy. Friction between the ice and another surface generates heat, causing the ice to melt and absorb energy in the process.
When mechanical energy is lost due to friction it becomes what kind of energy?
When mechanical energy is lost due to friction, it is converted into thermal energy, also known as heat energy. This occurs because the friction between surfaces causes the molecules to vibrate and create heat.
When friction is created between 2 objects the objects create?
When friction is createed between two objects, the objects create static electricity! :D
What does energy creates?
here are some possible energy outputs depending on the degree of friction: Heat energy- always Sound energy light energy(sparks)
Is it possible to design a track and the cart never stops in terms of energy?
Not quite. If you manage to significantly reduce friction, it can go on for a very long time, but it is not possible to absolutely eliminate friction.
When energy is released when friction is applied?
friction creates heat. Largely heat, which comes from the external agent energy causing the friction. Also some possible rearrangement of the atomic/molecular structure of the surface, and the energy for that also comes from the external agent.
When is friction unusfel?
Friction is useful in situations where we need to create traction or grip, such as when walking or driving. However, friction can be unwanted in scenarios where we are trying to reduce energy loss, such as in mechanical systems like engines where friction can lead to inefficiencies.
Can kinetic energy create thermal energy?
Yes and no. Kinetic is transfered to thermal all the time with friction. Sound and heat (thermal energy) are the usual outcomes. Be careful about using create, as the law of conservation of energy states the energy is transfered not created or destroyed.
When you rub your hands together what kinds of energy are you making?
When you rub your hands together, you are primarily creating frictional energy. The friction between your hands generates heat energy, as the contact and movement of the surfaces create resistance and convert mechanical energy into thermal energy.
