What sort of surface should a slide have so that you could go down it really fast?

There are experimental materials with lower coefficient of friction than Teflon, but teflon is quite easy to get ahold off in various forms.
The difference between teflon on teflon or teflon on steel is negligible, so I think your best bet is to find a steel slide and use teflon coated pants to ride it.
Teflon can be bought on the roll as thick plastic sheets or as a spray on; I'm not sure either is suitable for this.
Teflon can also be bought in the form of cloth, which sounds a whole lot easier to affix to a pair of existing pants, but I don't know if it would have the same low coefficient of friction.

What is to move smoothly along a surface?
slide
Why shouldnt the microscope be focused by moving the objectives and the slide closer together?
A microscope should not be focused by moving the objectives and the slide closer together because it will affect the working distance. It is the optimal distance between objective lens and the upper surface of the slide.
How can you reduce the amount of friction on a slide?
One of the things you could do is you could put soap and water on the slide.
Why should you never allow an objective lens to touch the slide?
because you can get it dirty, or you could move the object being viewed to a bad position.
What will happen you roll a ball on a surface that has very little friction?
The ball will travel in a straight line path.
What surface does a slide has to have so you can slide on it?
it needs to be slippery. obvs. how else could you slide on it
When observing a slide should the specimen be on the top or bottom surface of the microscope?
A specimen should be on the top surface of the slide and place a cover-slip over it.
Can you paint a polyethylene slide?
Not really, paint does not stick to polyethylene very well and would make the slide rough rather then 'slippery'.Alternative:Actually, some forms of epoxy paints will adhere to polyethylene. The issue is roughness again. If you prepare the surface by sanding it smooth, and spray the paint in layers, sanding each layer with progressively finer grit sandpaper, you should be able to produce a smooth enough finish to make sliding feasible. You might also need to wax or polish the slide's surface after the last coat of paint has set completely.If however there is any portion of the surface of the slide that is dirty, or has any sort of oil on it, the paint will not adhere there, and will create a peeling point that could spread over the entire surface of the slide.
To slide on a wet road surface?
When you slide on a wet road surface you are aquaplaning, also known as hydroplaning.
Can a book roll or slide?
yes. it can slide if on a slippery surface facing downwards
What is the minimum number of slides in a powerpoint presentation?
A slide show could have a single slide, so the minimum is one. Typically a slide show will have more than that. It will depend on what you need and how you design it.A slide show could have a single slide, so the minimum is one. Typically a slide show will have more than that.

How can you friction?
when you slide across a surface and then see an affect after.

Explanation why a car going around a bend wet road tend to slide off the road?
The damp road surface, plus the momentum of the car's weight going round a bend, could cause a loss of friction, resulting in a slide.
