A factor or condition which can be measured, altered or controlled, i.e., temperature, pressure, flow, liquid level, humidity, weight, chemical composition, color, etc. A symbol used to represent an unknown number, often x orn. A quantity that can have many possible values. In designing experiments, variables that affect measurements must be identified and controlled.
ComputingIn obstetrics, the process of turning the fetus. A cephalic version brings the fetal head into the birth canal. In gynecology, the tilting of the uterus.

ComputingA measure of electrical potential. Most homes are wired with 110 and 220 volt lines. The 110 volt power is used for lighting and most of the other circuits. The 220 volt power is usually used for the kitchen range, hot water heater and dryer. Amount of potential energy between two points on a circuit. Voltage the potential to do work, voltage is the ratio of the energy available to the charge, expressed in volts. The difference in electrical potential between any two conductors or between a conductor and ground.
ComputingReferring to seeing.
ComputingAny quantity, such as force velocity, or acceleration, which has both magnitude and direction at each point in space, as opposed to scalar which has magnitude only. Such a quantity may be represented geometrically by an arrow of length proportional to its magnitude, pointing in the assigned direction.
