Applied Interaction is when a object is being pushed or pulled.
So lets say: The mother is pushing kids in a cart at the grocery store. The mother is decreasing in stored-chemical energy and the cart is increasing in motion energy.
Friction Interaction is when 2 objects are rubbing or touching together.
So lets say: The box of Candy slides on the table then stops. The box of candy is decreasing in motion energyand the box of candy and the table is increasing in thermal energy.
Drag Interaction is when a object and another object (the other object must be air/water/gas).
So lets say: A boat slows down in the water. The boat is decreasing in motion energy and the water is increasing in motion energy.
Hope all of this helps :}
Please don't change my answers I work hard on them and respect my work :) If you have any questions about stuff email me at:

When two objects rub against each other, the friction between them causes resistance that converts mechanical energy into thermal energy. This happens because the movement of the objects' surfaces generates heat due to the molecular interactions and vibrations within the material.
When friction occurs, mechanical energy is converted to thermal energy due to the heat generated by the interactions between surfaces. This is known as the conversion of kinetic energy into heat energy through friction.
When brakes are applied to a moving vehicle, it stops due to the frictional force between the brake pads and the wheels. This friction converts the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle into heat, gradually reducing its speed and bringing it to a stop.
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.
Friction between the brake pads and the train wheels is the force that ultimately stops the train when the brakes are applied. The brake pads create friction by pressing against the rotating wheels, converting the kinetic energy of the train into heat energy as they slow down the train.

Due to friction
Friction between the brake pads and the train wheels is the force that ultimately stops the train when the brakes are applied. The brake pads create friction by pressing against the rotating wheels, converting the kinetic energy of the train into heat energy as they slow down the train.
Because some energy is expended in overcoming the friction and not applied to performing the task which the machine is meant to do.
No. friction produces thermal energy therefore friction produces heat. Rub your hands together and see what happens.
Most of it will be converted to heat, via friction.
The work of friction formula is W Fd, where W is the work done by friction, F is the force of friction, and d is the distance over which the force is applied. This formula is used to calculate the energy dissipated due to friction in a mechanical system by multiplying the force of friction by the distance over which it acts.
When work is done on a sliding block with friction, it can either increase or decrease the block's potential energy, depending on the direction of the force applied. If the work is done against the force of friction, the potential energy of the block increases. Conversely, if the work is done in the direction of the force of friction, the potential energy of the block decreases.
When the brakes are applied, the brake pads press against the brake rotors, creating friction. This friction converts the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle into thermal energy, slowing down the vehicle. The more friction generated between the pads and rotors, the faster the vehicle will decelerate.
