Solution
Frictional force is responsible for heating up of the tires of a moving vehicle. In such a situation, kinetic energy is converted into heat energy due to the frictional force.
Therefore the answer is, (b) Kinetic energy to heat energy.

An automobile engine propels a 1000 kg car (A) along a levelled road at a speed of 36 km h–1. Find the power if the opposing frictional force is 100 N. Now, suppose after travelling a distance of 200 m, this car collides with another stationary car (B) of the same mass and comes to rest. Let its engine also stop at the same time. Now the car (B) starts moving on the same level road without getting its engine started. Find the speed of the car (B) just after the collision.
