Noun

A measure of the change in size or volume of a material with a change in temperature.

ریشه

Co- (together) + efficient (productive) + expansion (act of expanding)

مثال

• The coefficient of expansion of the metal determines its behavior under temperature changes.
• Different materials have different coefficients of expansion, leading to varying thermal expansion rates.
