Friction is what you get when you rub your hands together. Your hands get warmed when you tickle them because of friction.

There’s always friction when the two objects in contact rub against each other. But there are a lot of parts moving over each other in machinery, engine, and the rest of an automobile, so there’s a lot of friction, a lot of wear, a lot of heat.
