How do you determine whether a substance is matter or not?

Under normal conditions, describe how increasing the temperatures effects the solubility of a typical salt

Asled is being held at rest on a slope that makes an angle θ with the horizontal. after the sled is released, it slidesa distance d1 down the slope and then covers the distance d2 alongthe horizontal terrain before stopping. find the coefficient ofkinetic friction μk between the sled and the ground, assumingthat it is constant throughout the trip. find the coefficient of kinetic frictionμk. express your answer in terms of someor all of the variables d1, d2, and θ.

A1000-kg car is moving at 30 m/s around a horizontal unbanked curve whose diameter is 0.20 km. what is the magnitude of the friction force required to keep the car from sliding?
