Coefficient of Volume (Cv) is a factor used in describing the amount of water that will pass through a fully open valve. It describes the flow in gallons per minute (GPM), with a specific gravity of 1, at a temperature of 60 deg F, and a pressure drop of 1 psi. For example, a Cv of 6.0 indicates a flow capability of 6.0 GPM at the above mentioned conditions. For a pressure drop of other than 1 PSI, GPM = Cv*Sqrt(delta P / Specific Gravity), where delta P is in unit of PSI.

For cylinders coefficient of lift is approximately half of coefficient of drag while they are equal for Aerofoils.
The coefficient in algebra is the number before a letter with an exponent on it. The 3 is the coefficient in this example: 3x7
The coefficient is the numerical value attached to an unknown or a variable. Thus, the coefficient of 8x is 8.
If 'N' is the variable, then 6 is the coefficient.
no, it is not but the coefficient of 5m is 5×m
