Thermal
Friction causes mechanical energy to be transformed into heat energy.
The energy lost in doing work against friction is primarily converted into heat energy. Friction between surfaces causes mechanical energy to be transformed into thermal energy, leading to an increase in temperature in the system.
In a washing machine, electrical energy is transformed into mechanical energy to rotate the drum and agitate the clothes. This mechanical energy then causes friction and movement of the clothes, resulting in kinetic energy and thermal energy to wash and dry the clothes.
When you rub your hands together, mechanical energy (from the motion of your hands) is converted into thermal energy due to the friction between your hands. Friction causes the molecules in your hands to move faster and generate heat, resulting in an increase in temperature.
Friction often causes some of an object's mechanical energy to be changed into heat energy. This is because as two surfaces rub against each other, the energy of motion gets converted into thermal energy due to the resistance of the surfaces.

Friction plays a significant role in mechanical efficiency as it causes energy loss by converting mechanical energy into heat. Minimizing friction through techniques such as lubrication and using low-friction materials can help improve the efficiency of a mechanical system by reducing energy wastage. A well-designed system will aim to strike a balance between reducing friction for efficiency and ensuring that enough friction is present for proper operation.
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.
An electric iron has a heating element that offers electrical resistance. The resistance causes friction to occur in the electrons and causes a heating effect.

because the skis are on the snow it causes friction which turns in to heat causing the skier to stop
