[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 2913383, member: 4191"] Friction is the term used to describe the force required to move two solid objects in contact with each other. The force required to move a solid object in contact with a second solid object, is determined and quantified by, a "Coefficient of Friction". Materials scientists have generated Coefficients of Friction for just about any and all solid materials present on on planet earth. To my knowledge, Coefficients of Friction only apply to solid objects/materials. The Coefficient isn't used to quantify friction/drag in fluids (either liquid or gaseous fluids). The SR71 friction losses due to fast flight through the atmosphere (a fluid) is another story. Altogether different than analyzing friction between a bullet and a barrel. That SR71 analogy has application to friction losses acting on a bullet during flight through air, after the bullet has left the bore. Basically zero application to a bullet traveling down a barrel.
