Will a sled with two or more people on it go down
a hill faster than a sled with one person on it?
Assuming all of the people weigh the same, and
the
sleds are the same.

Answer 1:
Likely yes. The more mass you have on the
sled will give it more momentum, which will help
overcome other forces of resistance that slow
the sled down.
