Scope

Missile

The range of a missile is given by the distance it can travel.

Reach is the ability to cover a distance or reach something (getting together with someone or something in front, or reaching out to touch or hit it). For example: "The range of the missile is 750 kilometers" , "This radio has a short range and does not reach beyond the avenue" .

In this sense we cannot overlook the fact that reach is a term widely used in the field of fencing . Thus, when this word is used it is to refer to the distance that a white weapon has reached or what is known as a black weapon, which is a weapon that has no edge, that has a button at its tip and that is used by people. who are learning the aforementioned discipline.

In the field of weapons we also find that there are many of them that are included under the name long range which, as its name indicates, expresses that they can reach their target from a greater distance than others. Among weapons of this type we could highlight, for example, various rifles as well as missiles or machine guns. This also leads us to refer to the concept of effective scope . This is used in the military field and refers to the maximum distance at which a soldier can impact his target.

Scope as capacity and tracking

Scope is also the intellectual or physical ability to approach something and access it. "Chemical formulas are out of my reach," "My reach is limited: I cannot reach the top of the mountain."

On the other hand, scope is known as the monitoring or persecution ( "The police could not catch up with the criminals who robbed the bank" ) and the significance or significance of some event ( "Rafael Nadal's fall at Roland Garros has reached international" ).

Intellectual capacity

The intellectual capacity to understand something can be called scope.

The concept in physics and accounting

For physics , range is the maximum penetration of a particle into a given material medium. In the military field, however, the adjustment that remains in favor of the soldier is known as scope.

The accounting scope is the debit balance that an account has unjustifiably. The concept is also used to refer to the absence of justification in public accounts. It is, therefore, the negative and unjustified balance of an account. Therefore, the accounting scope is linked to the obligation that a person has to be accountable for the management or custody of public funds.

The accounting scope implies a responsibility and its control is subject to legal requirements.

Reach Seal

Likewise, a term that uses the word reach is also used, although it is increasingly out of use. We are referring to what is known as a reach seal.

This is nothing more than a complementary type stamp that is placed on letters and postal packages when they are placed in a special mailbox once the mail collection time has passed.
