What is claimed is: 1 . A magnetic tape, which comprises, on a nonmagnetic support, a nonmagnetic layer comprising nonmagnetic powder and binder, and on the nonmagnetic layer, a magnetic layer comprising ferromagnetic powder, nonmagnetic powder, and binder, wherein a total thickness of the magnetic tape is less than or equal to 4.80 μm; and a coefficient of friction as measured on a base portion of a surface of the magnetic layer is less than or equal to 0.35. 2 . The magnetic tape according to claim 1 , wherein the ferromagnetic powder is selected from the group consisting of ferromagnetic hexagonal ferrite powder and ferromagnetic metal powder. 3 . The magnetic tape according to claim 1 , wherein the nonmagnetic powder contained in the magnetic layer comprises two or more kinds of nonmagnetic powder with different Mohs hardness. 4 . The magnetic tape according to claim 1 , wherein the nonmagnetic powder contained in the magnetic layer comprises inorganic powder with Mohs hardness of higher than 8. 5 . The magnetic tape according to claim 1 , wherein the nonmagnetic powder contained in the magnetic layer comprises nonmagnetic colloidal particles. 6 . The magnetic tape according to claim 1 , wherein the nonmagnetic powder contained in the magnetic layer comprises inorganic powder with Mohs hardness of higher than 8 and nonmagnetic colloidal particles. 7 . The magnetic tape according to claim 1 , wherein the nonmagnetic powder contained in the magnetic layer comprises additional nonmagnetic powder together with inorganic powder with Mohs hardness of higher than 8 and nonmagnetic colloidal particles. 8 . The magnetic tape according to claim 7 , wherein the additional nonmagnetic powder is colcothar. 9 . The magnetic tape according to claim 1 , wherein a centerline average surface roughness Ra measured with a noncontact surface profile measuring apparatus on the surface of the magnetic layer is less than or equal to 1.8 nm. 10 . The magnetic tape according to claim 6 , wherein a centerline average surface roughness Ra measured with a noncontact surface profile measuring apparatus on the surface of the magnetic layer is less than or equal to 1.8 nm. 11 . The magnetic tape according to claim 7 , wherein a centerline average surface roughness Ra measured with a noncontact surface profile measuring apparatus on the surface of the magnetic layer is less than or equal to 1.8 nm. 12 .
