When we rub our hands, we use our body's energy to generate kinetic energy. This causes friction between our hands, which causes heat to be produced. Hence we feel warm.

When in cold temperatures if your fingers become white and painful what do you do?

That isn't such a good idea. Fingers that cold can't feel how hot the water is, and you might end up scalding them instead. Never plunge a numb body part into water unless you know the temperature is safe. You need to test with a body part with normal sensitivity first. The rubbing is also a so-so thing. If you already have developed frostbite, you have ice crystals in your tissues. Rubbing will damage even more tissue, causing a bigger-than-necessary injury and slow down healing. Rubbing is ok though as long as you're sure there's no possibility of freezing.

The buildup of electric charges in one place?

The buildup of electric charges in one place can lead to static electricity. This accumulation of charges occurs when electrons are transferred from one surface to another, creating an imbalance that can result in sparking or electric discharge. It is commonly experienced when rubbing two objects together, such as when shuffling feet on a carpet.
