Why does a car skid when brakes are apllied suddenly?
In terms of Physics, a car's tires will skid on the road due to a difference in the coefficient of friction between the two surfaces. Other forces also play a role in determining whether or not the car will have enough frictional grip to stay on the road i.e. the normal force, gravity, other external forces.
How fast is a car going to leave a skid mark of 100 feet?
Most cars these days have ABS (Antilock Brake System) and they won't leave a skid mark. The speed will be determined by drag from road surface and how efficient the brakes were working. A 100 foot skid on average would be from a speed of 45-50mph on asphalt.
