The kinetic energy is converted to heat. In the brakes, friction is generated between the rotors of the wheels and the brakepad. This creates a large amount of resistance to rolling, slowing the car down. The kinetic energy is converted to heat, because when two objects rub together, they heat up. Try this with your hands, and you will find that rubbing your hands together fast and hard will heat them up. This is why in NASCAR races, you can sometimes see a rotor in a wheel on a car glowing red, because that much heat is generated as the brakes slow the car down.
The main types of brakes are disc brakes, drum brakes, and regenerative brakes. Disc brakes use calipers to squeeze pads against a rotor to create friction and slow down the vehicle. Drum brakes use shoes to press against the inside of a drum to generate friction. Regenerative brakes convert kinetic energy into electrical energy to slow down the vehicle.
No, car brakes actually increase friction in order to slow down or stop the vehicle. When the brakes are applied, they create friction between the brake pads and the brake rotors, converting the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle into heat energy that dissipates, causing the vehicle to slow down.
"Brakes" make the whole car slow down.
The brakes in a car or a bicycle use the principle of friction to convert the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle into heat energy. When the brake pads press against the rotating wheels, friction is created, causing the vehicle to slow down or stop.
When you apply the brakes, you are experiencing kinetic friction between the brake pads and the brake rotors. This friction converts the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle into thermal energy, which helps slow down the vehicle.

Pandas walk slow to conserve energy and since it can be cold in China during the winter their conserved energy helps them to survive
You are decelerating, and as you do so you are transfering quite a bit of energy to the brakes. That is why brakes can get very hot. The kinetic energy of the moving car is converted to friction on the brake pads.
When a vehicle is slowing down, the external force of friction between the brakes and the wheels is what changes its momentum and kinetic energy. This force works against the vehicle's motion, transferring kinetic energy into heat and bringing the vehicle to a stop. The force of the brakes is an internal force that generates friction to slow down the vehicle.
Yes, applying the brakes on a bicycle should slow it down. Little squares of rubber are pressed to the metal rimming on the bicylce's wheel when you pull a handle brake, or pedal backwards (depends on if it's an adult bike or children's bike).

Friction causes the bike to slow down.
