When gasoline burns, it is transformed into kinetic then used in motion. Also remember the Conservation of Energy Law, no energy can be created or destroyed. So when the total energy in the world one day becomes useless, things will come to a standstill.

The energy in a car starts as electrical energy in the battery. That energy creates thermal energy in the form of a spark, which activates chemical energy in the fuel. The chemical energy converts to thermal energy which is then transformed to the mechanical energy which moves the car.
kinetic energy can be converted into other forms of energy... And vise vers.For example, kinetic energy can be converted into electrical energy by a generator or into thermal energy by the brakes on a car.
the elastic potential energy of the spring on the mouse trap is changed to kinetic energy, causing the car to move. The kinetic energy in turn changes to thermal energy as friction causes the car to come to a halt
No. A real car IS not kinetic energy, but it HAS kinetic energy.No. A real car IS not kinetic energy, but it HAS kinetic energy.No. A real car IS not kinetic energy, but it HAS kinetic energy.No. A real car IS not kinetic energy, but it HAS kinetic energy.
An example: When applying the brakes on a moving car (kinetic energy,) the Brake Pads and Disks heat (thermal energy) from the friction, as do the tires and the road (again, friction. All the Thermal Energy created, is waste or wasted.

The chemical energy is transformed in kinetic energy.
Chemical energy is being converted to thermal energy which is then converted to mechanical energy and finally to kinetic energy which moves the car. Kinetic energy is then converted to thermal energy in the brakes to stop the car.

First if all, energy is never created, nor does it disappear . . . but I know what you mean. "What energy is its kinetic (motion) energy transformed to?" The answer is "kinetic energy plus heat".
When stopping a car, energy is transferred from one form to another. Specifically, when stopping a car, the kinetic energy of the car is converted to thermal energy. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion; the car’s kinetic energy is created from the engine’s combustion of fuel and is used to move the car forward. Thermal energy, on the other hand, is the energy of heat; when a car is stopped, the kinetic energy is converted to thermal energy as the car’s brakes and tires heat up due to friction. This friction is created when the car’s brakes and tires create a force against the road surface to slow down the car. The car’s engine also contributes to the slowing of the car by controlling the fuel and air intake, which reduces the amount of power going to the wheels and decreases the car’s speed. In addition to the transfer of kinetic energy to thermal energy, energy is also converted to sound energy when a car is stopped. This sound energy is created when the car’s brakes and tires make contact with the road surface, creating a sound wave that carries the energy away. Finally, energy is also converted to gravitational potential energy when a car is stopped. This type of energy is stored in the car’s body and is released as the car begins to move again. As the car’s mass is elevated, it gains gravitational potential energy which can be used to accelerate the car forward. Therefore, when a car is stopped, energy is transferred from kinetic energy to thermal energy, sound energy, and gravitational potential energy.

Yes, there are many examples. Electrical energy to light energy (light bulb). Mechanical energy to heat energy (rub your hands together). Chemical energy to light energy (a glowstick), and on and on.
