(b) When the brake pedal of the car is pushed, brake pads press against very hard
steel discs.
The force of friction between the brake pads and the steel discs gradually stops the
car.
What two effects does using the brakes have on the brake pads and wheel discs?

Q8. A student investigated how the extension of a spring depends on the force applied to the
spring.
The diagram shows the spring before and after a force had been applied.
(a) (i) Complete the following sentence using letters, A, B, C or D, from the diagram.
The extension of the spring is the distance between the positions labelled
