potential

A currently unrealized ability (with the most common adposition being to).

Even from a young age it was clear that she had the potential to become a great musician.

Comrades, our own fleet doesn't know our full potential. They will do everything possible to test us, but they will only test their own embarrassment.

The gravitational potential: the radial (irrotational, static) component of a gravitational field, also known as the Newtonian potential or the gravitoelectric field.

The work (energy) required to move a reference particle from a reference location to a specified location in the presence of a force field, for example to bring a unit positive electric charge from an infinite distance to a specified point

A verbal construction or form stating something is possible or probable.

Existing in possibility, not in actuality.

The heroic man,—and is not every man, God be thanked, a potential hero?—has to do so, in all times and circumstances.

Being potent; endowed with energy adequate to a result

And hath, in his effect, a voice potential

irrotational

From Maxwell equations (6.20) it follows that the electric field is potential: E(r) = −gradφ(r).

irrotational (see potential flow on Wikipedia)

The non-viscous flow of the vacuum should be potential (irrotational).

Referring to a verbal construction of form stating something is possible or probable.
