Yes, the coal 3/4 of a circle inside the potentiometer is a weerstandsbaan. Like Rob said, weerstand=resistor. I can add that a "baan" is something like a track or a road (also a job but that is a completely different meaning), I think the word "stripe" can be used as well (like in a landing stripe).
Yours sincerely, Rene

Weerstandsbaan (dutch) = koolbaan (dutch) = carbon track (english) Weerstandsbaan also can be the track of a wirewound resistor/potentiometer.

It is the name for the black carbon part, literally translated: resistance track.
