Fluxion :: Fluxion (n.) A method of analysis developed by Newton, and based on the conception of all magnitudes as generated by motion, and involving in their changes the notion of velocity or rate of change. Its results are the same as those of the differential and integral calculus, from which it differs little except in notation and logical method..

Infinite :: Infinite (n.) An infinite quantity or magnitude.

Sum :: Sum (n.) The aggregate of two or more numbers, magnitudes, quantities, or particulars; the amount or whole of any number of individuals or particulars added together; as, the sum of 5 and 7 is 12..

Lyra :: Lyra (n.) A northern constellation, the Harp, containing a white star of the first magnitude, called Alpha Lyrae, or Vega..

Pollux :: Pollux (n.) A fixed star of the second magnitude, in the constellation Gemini. Cf. 3d Castor..

Algebra :: Algebra (n.) That branch of mathematics which treats of the relations and properties of quantity by means of letters and other symbols. It is applicable to those relations that are true of every kind of magnitude.

Gradient :: Gradient (n.) The rate of increase or decrease of a variable magnitude, or the curve which represents it; as, a thermometric gradient..

Magnitude :: Magnitude (n.) Greatness; grandeur.

Surface :: Surface (n.) A magnitude that has length and breadth without thickness; superficies; as, a plane surface; a spherical surface..

Fraction :: Fraction (n.) One or more aliquot parts of a unit or whole number; an expression for a definite portion of a unit or magnitude.

Figure :: Figure (n.) A diagram or drawing; made to represent a magnitude or the relation of two or more magnitudes; a surface or space inclosed on all sides; -- called superficial when inclosed by lines, and solid when inclosed by surface; any arrangement made up of points, lines, angles, surfaces, etc..

Combat :: Combat (n.) An engagement of no great magnitude; or one in which the parties engaged are not armies.

Ratio :: Ratio (n.) The relation which one quantity or magnitude has to another of the same kind. It is expressed by the quotient of the division of the first by the second; thus, the ratio of 3 to 6 is expressed by / or /; of a to b by a/b; or (less commonly) the second term is made the dividend; as, a:b = b/a..

Astronomy :: Astronomy (n.) The science which treats of the celestial bodies, of their magnitudes, motions, distances, periods of revolution, eclipses, constitution, physical condition, and of the causes of their various phenomena..

Element :: Element (n.) An infinitesimal part of anything of the same nature as the entire magnitude considered; as, in a solid an element may be the infinitesimal portion between any two planes that are separated an indefinitely small distance. In the calculus, element is sometimes used as synonymous with differential..
