2. Light - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light

   This should not be confused with the Nichols radiometer, in which the (slight) motion caused by torque (though not enough for full rotation against friction) is directly caused by light pressure. [28] As a consequence of light pressure, Einstein in 1909 predicted the existence of "radiation friction" which would oppose the movement of matter. [29]

3. Sources of electrical energy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sources_of_electrical_energy

   Friction is the least-used of the six methods of producing energy. If a cloth rubs against an object, the object will display an effect called friction electricity. The object becomes charged due to the rubbing process, and now possesses an static electrical charge, hence it is also called static electricity. There are two main types of ...

4. Triboluminescence - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triboluminescence

   Triboluminescence is a phenomenon in which light is generated when a material is mechanically pulled apart, ripped, scratched, crushed, or rubbed (see tribology). The phenomenon is not fully understood but appears in most cases to be caused by the separation and reunification of static electric charges , see also triboelectric effect .
