Because the brakes are used to reduce the kinetic energy of the car. When you do that,
the extra kinetic energy has to go somewhere, because energy is never destroyed. The
brakes do a great job of converting kinetic energy into heat energy, which is very soon
Gone with the Wind. Don't forget where that energy came from ... the gasoline that you
paid good money for, and then watched as it blew away in the air running through the fenders.
Conservation of energy. The energy from the moving car is transformed into heat by the action of the brakes.
This is an example of kinetic friction, which is the force that opposes the motion of two surfaces sliding against each other. When you apply the brakes in a car, the brake pads exert a force on the rotating wheels, resulting in friction that slows down the car and generates heat due to the surfaces rubbing against each other.

Water heats up quickly when heat is applied from the bottom because hot air rises and creates circulation within the water, leading to more even distribution of heat. This process, known as convection, helps the water to heat up efficiently and quickly from the bottom up.
Examples of kinetic energy converting to heat energy include a moving car's brakes heating up due to friction, rubbing your hands together to generate heat, and the friction produced by rubbing two sticks together to create a fire.
it sounds to me that your hand brake is applied or stuck on.try releasing it or check the rear brakes.

In a standard car, the energy becomes heat in the brakes. Keep that up for too long, and they'll burn up. I have personally had the pleasure of coming down a mountain in China where that technique was applied, and seeing both front tires ignite simultaneously. In an electric or hybrid car, some of the energy goes back in to recharge the batteries.

They make it so the car does not lock up the brakes and slide. Antilock braking system.
Dust build up on pads/shoes (squeal) Worn pads/shoes causing metal to metal contact (grinding) Suspension fault, movement of faulty component when the brakes are applied (knocking).
yes they do most of the stopping
Your vehicle is equipped with abs and anti lock brakes, when applied hard enough the system interprets it as a panic stop and pulses the brakes to prevent lock up and skidding.
If the back dash light will light when the brakes are applied but the two tail lights will not light up, there is probably a short in the wiring somewhere. It could also be that the fuse for the brake lights is burned out.
He heard a screech as the car brakes locked up and skidded to a halt.
