∙ 6y agoFriction is a force, which is measured in newtons. However, what is often quoted is the coefficient of friction, defined as friction/load, which is dimensionless and thus has no units.

Is the coefficient of friction up to 13 unit?
No. Coefficient of friction is not measured in units.
Why is perimeter measured in units and area measured in sq units?
Because a perimeter is measured in linear units while an area is measured in square units.
Is the area measured in cubic units?
No, volume is measured in cubic units, area is measured in square units.
What are the units for friction force?
The units for friction force are typically in newtons (N) in the International System of Units (SI).
Why is a solid figure measured in cubic units?
The length, width, or height of a solid figure is measured in units of length. The area of the figure's outside surfaces is measured in squared units of length. The volume of space filled by the figure is measured in cubed units of length. The mass of the figure is measured in units of mass. The weight of the object is measured in units of force. The age of the figure is measured in units of time. etc.
What unit measures friction?
Friction is a force. I'll get back to that.Weight, which is usually measured in pounds or ounces or grams (depending on where you live or what you're measuring), has an official (SI) unit of newtons. An object's weight depends on the gravity affecting that object. (You probably know that you weigh less on the Moon than you do on Earth.)Gravity, which is a force, is consequently measured in newtons, just like weight. All forces are measured in newtons.Therefore, friction, which is a force, is measured in newtons.
How is area wrote in cubic units?
Area is measured in square units. Volume is measured in cubic units.
What area is measured in length units?
None. Area cannot be measured in length units - only in squares of such units.
What lines measured in units?
No line can be measured in units since they are all infinite in length.
What is the unit that time is measured by?
Time is typically measured using units such as seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years.
What is measured in units called?
it is measured in joules
Volume is measured in _________ units.?
No, cubic units.
