  2. Winding number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winding_number

    The winding number is well defined because of the existence and uniqueness of the lifted path (given the starting point in the covering space) and because all the fibers of are of the form (+) (so the above expression does not depend on the choice of the starting point). It is an integer because the path is closed.

  5. Apparent wind - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apparent_wind

    The apparent wind is the wind experienced by an observer in motion and is the relative velocity of the wind in relation to the observer. [citation needed]The velocity of the apparent wind is the vector sum of the velocity of the headwind (which is the velocity a moving object would experience in still air) plus the velocity of the true wind.

    A mathematical constant is a key number whose value is fixed by an unambiguous definition, often referred to by a symbol (e.g., an alphabet letter), or by mathematicians' names to facilitate using it across multiple mathematical problems. [1]
