The driver of a car slams on the brakes so that his car does not crash into a deer in the road. What happens to the thermal energy of the tires as the car skids to a stop? What causes this change in thermal energy?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1) Thermal energy increases

2) Kinetic energy from friction -> thermal energy

Step-by-step explanation:

When you rub your hand against a rug really hard, there's heat that's created by kinetic energy (movement energy).

Kinetic energy can be expressed in thermal energy.
