Difference between a constant and a coefficient?
Ya mum Constant are numbers which has no units (EG: PYE which is 22/7) . They are just numbers. Where as coefficients have units. . where as Coefficient like alpha the thermal coefficient has units .It is so many mm/meter/ deg C
Is coefficient of discharge constant?
No coefficient of discharge is not constant. It is a function of many parameters like :The ratio of the length of the orifice to diameter of orificeReynolds numberflow condition-whether it is increasing or decreasingPressure at the exit of the orifice (back pressure)Orifice entry condition- like smooth entry, sharp edged entry etc.
What do you mean when you say that the coefficient of variation has no units?
Suppose the mean of a sample is 1.72 metres, and the standard deviation of the sample is 3.44 metres. (Notice that the sample mean and the standard deviation will always have the same units.) Then the coefficient of variation will be 1.72 metres / 3.44 metres = 0.5. The units in the mean and standard deviation 'cancel out'-always.
Example of coefficient?
coefficient
What is an example of coefficient?
2X 2 is the coefficient
