Friction is decreased by means of lubrication.
Decrease friction .
by using a lubricant to decrease the friction.
add or remove lube
You could decrease the sled's acceleration by increasing its mass, increasing friction between the sled and the surface it's on, or reducing the force being applied to the sled.
Decrease friction.
Wax, due to it filling the pores that cause friction will reduce friction.
you don't.
To decrease the magnitude of friction, you can apply a lubricant between the surfaces in contact, use smoother materials to reduce surface roughness, or apply a force to counteract the friction force. Reducing the normal force between the surfaces can also decrease friction.
Friction will decrease if the coefficient of friction decreases. This can be caused by having a smother surface up to a point. (When two surface are TOO smooth the friction actually increases due to molecular attraction.)
Yes.
"lubrication"
lubrication decreases friction unless you're lubricating with sandpaper.
