Potential
Definition:
(a.) Being potent; endowed with energy adequate to a result; efficacious; influential.
(a.) Existing in possibility, not in actuality.
(n.) Anything that may be possible; a possibility; potentially.
(n.) In the theory of gravitation, or of other forces acting in space, a function of the rectangular coordinates which determine the position of a point, such that its differential coefficients with respect to the coordinates are equal to the components of the force at the point considered; -- also called potential function, or force function. It is called also Newtonian potential when the force is directed to a fixed center and is inversely as the square of the distance from the center.
