Definizione monolingua

potential

Wikipedia potential (plural potentials)

1. Currently unrealized ability.

   Even from a young age it was clear that she had great musical potential.

2. (physics) The gravitational potential is the radial (irrotational, static) component of a gravitational field, also known as the Newtonian potential or the gravitoelectric field.^[1][2][3]
3. (physics) The work required to bring a unit positive electric charge from an infinite distance to a specified point against an electric field.
4. (grammar) A verbal construction or form stating something is possible or probable.

potential (not comparable)

1. Existing in possibility, not in actuality.
2. (archaic) Being potent; endowed with energy adequate to a result; efficacious; influential.
3. (physics) A potential field is an irrotational (static) field.

   From Maxwell equations (6.20) it follows that the electric field is potential: E(r) = ?grad?(r).^[4]

4. (physics) A potential flow is an irrotational flow.

   The non-viscous flow of the vacuum should be potential (irrotational).^[5]

5. (grammar) Referring to a verbal construction of form stating something is possible or probable.
