It is most likely caused by a rotor that is warped. When you step on the brake pedal, the brake pads pulse against the uneven surface, causing a "thumping" you can feel. Other possibilities could include a bad wheel bearing or a tire that has tread that is separating.
Maybe that thumping noise is the sound of another car smashing into the rear of your car.
Friction from excessive braking causes heat, thus the lubricant on brakes release this burnt smell.
The car breaks (brakes) stop the car.
The engine stops running. In most cases it also causes expensive to repair valve damage and on some high performance engines piston and rod damage.
Without hearing the sound it's hard to diagnose, but I would look at: Alternator, transmission, serpentine belt & pulleys, depending on where the sound is coming from.
more than likely you need rotors or the caliber slides are worn
