Detailed Solution

The frictional force is responsible for heat production when we rub our hands.
When we rub our hands together, the action of rubbing the surface of our skin back and forth against each other causes the molecules in our skin to move fast. The temperature will be high or low depending on how fast the molecules move. So our hand feels warmer when we rub them together due to friction. Or when surfaces in contact are in relative motion, friction between the two surfaces transforms the kinetic energy into thermal energy.
