Can the coefficient of friction be greater than 1?
Can the coefficient of friction be greater than 1? The coefficient of friction depends on the objects that are causing friction. The value is usually between 0 and 1 but can be greater than 1. A value of 0 means there is no friction at all between the objects; such is possible with Superfluidity. A […]
