In a ploynomial or differential equation or really any formula or equation with variables in it, the coefficients are the terms "in front of" the variable or multiplied the variables. Each variable generally has its own coefficient. If a coefficient is constant (ie just a number) then it is a constant coefficient. eg Consider the polynomial , 3x2+9yx+6 in terms of x. It has one constant coefficient (3), one variable coefficient (9y) and one constant (6).
9 is the constant. 5 is the coefficient of the variable term. X is the variable term.
if there is something like 4x^2, then the 4 is the coefficient. It is the coefficient of the X. The squared part is the exponent. If something is just 2x, then the 2 is the exponent. It is the known number, the constant that is multiplied times the X.

The numbers that are represented by a variable is better known as a coefficient. Otherwise known as a constant. The constant always stays the same such as in a scientific problem in an experiment.
We call a number that has no variable attached to it, a constant. A number attached to a variable, as in 3x, is called a coefficient.
In this scenario, the coefficient of friction is constant if the surfaces in contact and the conditions remain the same.
the coefficient is 46 and the constant is 0
6 is the coefficient, n is the variable, 3 is the constant
6 is the coefficient, n is the variable, 3 is the constant

This constant is mu; the coefficient of friction.
it is a soil constant (coefficient of sub grade reaction)
It depends on the equation and the coefficient. Coefficients can be constant (Boltzmann constant, Avogadro's number) but they can also be variable (Reynolds number). The coefficient of gravity, g, is 9.81 m/s^2 in metric units on Earth.
2. Although, technically, the coefficient, 5, is also a constant.
Yes--in that it is a constant that typically precedes a variable.
