Origin: The sense "to be convinced, to determine" comes from the idea of loosening, breaking up into parts, analyzing, hence, determining. 1. To separate the component parts of; to reduce to the constituent elements; said of compound substances; hence, sometimes, to melt, or dissolve. "O, that this too too solid flesh would melt, Thaw, and resolve itself into a dew!" (Shak) "Ye immortal souls, who once were men, And now resolved to elements again." (Dryden) 2. To reduce to simple or intelligible notions; said of complex ideas or obscure questions; to make clear or certain; to free from doubt; to disentangle; to unravel; to explain; hence, to clear up, or dispel, as doubt; as, to resolve a riddle.

To let the tones (as of a discord) follow their several tendencies, resulting in a concord. 10. To relax; to lay at ease.

| resolving power | 1. <optics> The resolution of an optical system defines the closest proximity of two objects that can be seen as two distinct regions of the image. This limit depends upon the Numerical Aperture of the optical system, the contrast step between objects and background and the shape of the objects. The often quoted Airy limit applies only to self luminous discs. 2. <genetics> The smallest map distance measurable by an experiment involving a certain number of classified recombinant progency.
