Why no holes in disk brake in car?

They are not needed for normal driving. They are on some aftermarket rotors to cool them faster, but they are hard on pads and most get them just for looks. Many pros drill the holes themselves-it's cheaper.

When the brakes are applied, the car's kinetic energy is converted to heat by friction between the brake pad and the brake disk.

What force slows car hitting the brakes?

Generally speaking for cars that have "disk brakes", friction slows the car. When the driver presses down on the brake pedal the brake calipers squeeze the brake pads against the brake rotor inside each car wheel causing the car to slow down by friction.


What would cause your car to make a weird jerking motion while you press the brakes?

What you're describing COULD be what is called "disk brake chatter". The problem is caused by heat, which eventually will warp the rotors. If the rotor is warped the disk brake pads grab with different force as the warped rotor changes angle toward the brake pads. If the problem IS disk brake chatter, the only options are to have the rotors turned or replace them.
