Answer:

a common example is when people strike rocks, when they do this it produces sparks, which is heat, which is energy.

Friction is the process whereby kinetic (mechanical) energy is converted directly into thermal energy (heat) period. Similarly, for example, electrical resistance is the process where electrical energy (in the form of active current) is converted into heat.
