What is the coefficient of friction? The coefficient of friction is a dimensionless scalar value that represents the ratio of the force of friction between two bodies to the force pressing them together. It is denoted by the symbol "μ" (mu). The coefficient of friction provides insight into the level of friction between two surfaces and is expressed as the ratio of the force of friction (F_friction) to the normal force (F_normal) acting perpendicular to the surfaces in contact.
