  "definition": "The coefficient of lift, a dimensionless quantity that relates the lift generated by a lifting body, such as an aircraft wing, to the fluid density around it, the fluid velocity, and a reference area. This coefficient quantifies the aerodynamic efficiency of a wing or airfoil. It is a key parameter in aircraft design and performance calculations, influencing stall speed and climb rate.",
