 Loosely put: "friction" counteracts a Rigidbody's momentum with a minimum magnitude of 0 and a maximum of m*g. The friction values are clamped 0-1 because values > 1 would "create" energy. Loosely put: "friction" counteracts a Rigidbody's momentum with a minimum magnitude of 0 and a maximum of m*g.
