yes. because when two objects rub together it produces heat and friction, im pretty sure.
A:
I would respectively disagree with the answer given above and say "no." Matches use a compound chemical that ignites under minimal friction, but this friction is not relative to the heat produced (in fact the first attempts were unsuccessful, as not enough heat was produced to ignite the substance). In my humble opinion the match is only an example under the broadest of terms.
The friction that occurs when striking a match to light a fire is kinetic friction. As the match head is rubbed against the rough surface of the matchbox, heat is produced due to the friction, causing the match to ignite and light the fire.
No, striking a match against a box is an example of friction creating heat. Convection involves the transfer of heat through the movement of fluid, such as air or water.
When striking a match, the chemical energy stored in the match-head is transformed into heat and light energy.
When a match is struck, friction between the match head and the striking surface generates heat. This heat then ignites the chemicals in the match head, triggering a chemical reaction that produces more heat as the match burns.
When a match is struck, the friction between the match head and the striking surface produces heat, igniting the match head due to the heat-sensitive chemicals present. This process requires work to break the chemical bonds in the match head and generate enough heat for combustion to occur.

Striking a match is an example of an endothermic reaction. It is also an example of simple combustion and a chemical reaction.

Striking a match against a matchbox involves frictional force. This force is generated when the rough surface of the match head rubs against the striking surface of the matchbox, producing enough heat to ignite the chemicals in the match. The friction converts kinetic energy from the motion of striking into thermal energy, leading to combustion.
When a match is struck, friction between the match head and the striking surface generates heat. This heat then ignites the chemicals in the match head, triggering a chemical reaction that produces more heat as the match burns.
No, a safety match needs a specially treated striking surface to generate the necessary friction and ignite. Without the treated surface, the match will not light.
When a match is struck, the friction between the match head and the striking surface produces heat, igniting the match head due to the heat-sensitive chemicals present. This process requires work to break the chemical bonds in the match head and generate enough heat for combustion to occur.
When a match is struck, the friction ignites the molecules on the match head, creating a chemical reaction that releases heat energy. This heat is then used to light the matchstick.
When a match is struck, mechanical energy from the friction between the match head and the striking surface is converted into thermal energy from the heat production that ignites the match head. This thermal energy is then transformed into light and heat energy as the match continues to burn.
