Kinetic energy

The video explains that kinetic energy is calculated as half the mass of a moving object multiplied by the square of its velocity. It also discusses how, when a car brakes, some of its kinetic energy is converted into thermal energy in the brake discs, which can result in significant heat transfer, especially in fast-moving cars.

In what form is some of the kinetic energy converted when a car brakes?

What can be said about the amount of heat transferred in a very fast car during braking?
