Kinetic+to+Thermal+Energy

=Kinetic Energy to Thermal Energy=

Kinetic energy can change into Thermal energy. When you rub your hands together they get warmer. When you increase Thermal energy you are increasing temperature. There isn't much Kinetic energy but some while you're rubbing your hands. The friction between your hands causes just a little kinetic energy to change into thermal energy.

Diagram:

1. Your hands are cold and have no energy.

2. Rub your hands together, when you are rubbing your hands you are causing Kinetic energy to turn into heat, or Thermal energy.

3. If you look at your hands with a thermal camera heres what it would look like.
