AS REPORTEDno primary record reached; this is what the reporting says
Is it true that a coefficient of friction value of zero means there is no friction at all between the objects?
Yes. Since the frictional force is calculated by multiplying the coefficient of friction by the normal force, a coefficient of zero results in a frictional force of zero.
