mutual inductance vs coefficient

coefficient and mutual inductance both are nouns.

Word	Noun	Adjective	Verb	Adverb
coefficient	Yes	No	No	No
mutual inductance	Yes	No	No	No

As nouns, mutual inductance is a hyponym of coefficient; that is, mutual inductance is a word with a more specific, narrower meaning than coefficient:

coefficient: a constant number that serves as a measure of some property or characteristic
mutual inductance: a measure of the induction between two circuits; the ratio of the electromotive force in a circuit to the corresponding change of current in a neighboring circuit; usually measured in henries

Other hyponyms of coefficient include absorptance, absorption coefficient, coefficient of absorption, coefficient of drag, drag coefficient, coefficient of friction, coefficient of mutual induction, coefficient of self induction, self-inductance, modulus, coefficient of expansion, expansivity, coefficient of reflection, reflectance, reflection factor, reflectivity, transmission, transmittance, absolute viscosity, coefficient of viscosity, dynamic viscosity, weight, weighting.
