Welcome to AF.
A few things can break the belt.
A bad pulley on one of the engine components, a bad belt tensioner.
If something like the water pump or alternator is binding and draging on the belt, it'll break.
This should be pretty easy for any shop to figure out.
And the burning smell is probly the belts. Your HVAC draws the air in from under the edge of the hood below the windshield.
Hope that helps
