WHAT DOES ARCHIMEDES SPIRAL MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Archimedean spiral

The Archimedean spiral is a spiral named after the 3rd century BC Greek mathematician Archimedes. It is the locus of points corresponding to the locations over time of a point moving away from a fixed point with a constant speed along a line which rotates with constant angular velocity. Equivalently, in polar coordinates it can be described by the equation with real numbers a and b. Changing the parameter a will turn the spiral, while b controls the distance between successive turnings. Archimedes described such a spiral in his book On Spirals.
