Answer 1

Dear Student,

The friction between brake pads and wheels stop car, as that is where the friction acts and the Kinetic energy is converted into
heat energy.
The car can not stopped by Road if the brakes are applied properly and there is no skidding. Because the friction of the road is necessary for the wheel to rotate.
