Answer:

Like all questions in this sublevel, the work done by non-conservative forces must be related to the changes in energy of the object (see Physics Rules section above). In the case of the car skidding to a stop, the kinetic energy equation (see Formula Fix section below) can be used to determine the initial and final kinetic energy of the car. Since the car is on the ground, the height and potential energy can be regarded as zero.
