Why does my 1990 Honda Accord make a grinding sound when i use the brakes?

I'm pretty sure that my brake pads are REALLY worn down but i'm not 100% positive that this is the case.

I slammed on my brakes really hard one night and now every time i use my brakes, it sounds like something is grinding and spinning really loud. The noise is constant and only fades away when i drive faster than 40mph.

Anybody know what the deal is and how much it would cost me to fix it?
 
you have used up all of your brake pads and have the backing plates on the rotors... metal to metal. chances are you went from a $200 brake job to a $400 because you will need to buy rotors. I may be wrong if it doesn't happen at all at high speeds
