A saw can exhibit kinetic energy when it is in motion, such as when cutting through materials. The movement of the saw blade results in kinetic energy being transferred to the object being cut.
The car will continue at half-speed. While you held the brake, the brake pads absorbed kinetic energy from the car's motion. The kinetic energy turned to heat, which, hopefully, was carried away in the air stream through the wheels. (If it doesn't blow away, then your brakes overheat.) This was energy that was extracted from the gasoline you paid for. It blew away, and your car now has less kinetic energy ... i.e. less speed. If you want more speed again, you'll have to buy and burn more gas. Here's an exception I can think of ... a case where the car might speed up to its original speed when the brake is released: If you have the cruise control ON, it's supposed to drop out when you touch the brake. If the cruise is broke and it fails to cut out as it should, then when you release the brake, the cruise would try to take you back up to the speed it's set for. This would be a dangerous situation.
When the amplitude of a wave is cut in half, the energy of the wave decreases by a factor of four.
The forms of energy associated with particles that make up objects include kinetic energy (energy of motion), potential energy (stored energy), thermal energy (heat energy), and electromagnetic energy (light and other forms of radiation).
A grass cutter utilizes mechanical energy to cut grass. The kinetic energy from the movement of the blade is transformed into the mechanical work required to cut through the grass, resulting in a transfer of energy from the cutter to the grass.

Kinetic energy = 1/2 M V2 .Double the mass . . . doubles the KE.Cut the speed in half . . . reduces the KE to 1/4 .Do both . . . reduces the KE to 1/2 its original value.
The energy of the light is directly proportional to its frequency according to the equation E=hf, where E is energy, h is Planck's constant, and f is frequency. Therefore, if the frequency of light is cut in half, the energy of the light will also be halved.
They have to usually cut energy costs in half to get this seal of approval.
