Brake squealing is commonly caused by worn brake pads. The metal part of the pad makes contact with the rotor, causing the noise.
Yes, that is the purpose of brakes.

If you apply the brakes it can stop it moving.
high pitched squeal from left front wheel does not stop when I apply the brakes. It will stop when I turn the steering wheel even a little bit but returns when I straighten out again
You can try but the squeal will probably come back. Brake squeal is usually due to cracked, glazed, contaminated or inferior brake linings.
first of all, the pads may be semi-metallic and have chunks of metal in them which may cause the squeal, change to a less metallic pad may help, also the backing of the pads should have an anti-squeal gel applied to them, when you apply the brakes, the pads will hyper vibrate and can cause a squeal. The gel will stop the vibrating. first of all, the pads may be semi-metallic and have chunks of metal in them which may cause the squeal, change to a less metallic pad may help, also the backing of the pads should have an anti-squeal gel applied to them, when you apply the brakes, the pads will hyper vibrate and can cause a squeal.

The brakes apply force to the wheel, causing friction which stops it.
When a driver wants to stop a car, they apply the brakes. The friction between the tires and the road surface help stop the car. How a vehicle handles is determined by the traction between the tires and roadway.

Some brake pads have a built in "squealer" to worn the driver that the brakes are in need of service soon. Have a trusted mechanic inspect the brakes soon. Waiting may cost you more money in repairs.
Both air brakes and hydraulic brakes are capable of locking up the wheels. It would depend on the weight of the vehicle, tires and road conditions.
