Best Answer

When you rub the sandpaper against wood you're causing the particles in the two materials to bump into each other more frequently, causing their speed to increase over time. This heats both the sandpaper and the wood through kinetic friction.

Yes, sanding wood with sandpaper generates heat energy due to the friction between the abrasive particles on the sandpaper and the wood surface.

It is caused by friction. The transfer of energy when the two objects rub together makes heat.

Can friction produce heat energy?

Yes, it does produce heat energy.


Which enery transformation occurs when a match is lit?

The chemical energy - sugars - in your bloodstream are absorbed by the muscle cells in your arms. Your muscles convert this chemical energy into kinetic energy (the energy of motion) in moving the match against the sandpaper surface. The movement of the match against the sandpaper surface causes friction, changing the kinetic energy into heat. The heat of friction in the matchhead causes the phosphorus coating to ignite, converting the heat of friction into heat of combustion, in which the chemical energy in the match is oxidized into radiant heat.
