The terms "source" and "sink" could be used for inputs but are more commonly used for output terminals. If a device has a "source" output, it supplies current to an external device by connecting it to some power source. If the device is a "sink" it supplies current to some other device by draining it away to ground (often -ve). This is where the names "source" and "drain" came from in the naming of Field Effect Transistor terminals.
Many devices have both "sink" and "source" capabilities such as most operational amplifiers. Most of the time the "sink" and "source" capabilities of such a device are different because N material conducts better then P material.

What is meant by the term source?
usually power source where power comes from logic gates outputs are commonly called source or sink say the power source to the package is positive (VCC is +5) to call the output a source we would use an NPN transistor with the collector connected to +5V the base goes to the logic the emitter is the output terminal the output is the source of +5v sink output would have the emitter grounded base to logic the collector is the output so the output will sink positive voltage to ground A BUFFER usually has two output transistors one for source one for sink and can do either or both
What is the math term for input?
Input actually is a maths term. However, the term "domain" may also be appropriate.
What do you understand by the term FOSS in computer term?
I don't quite understand your question, but FOSS stands for Free Open Source Software. From your question, I'm going to assume that you are trying to install a piece of software that is FOSS compliant and licensed as such.

What is a sink ecology speaking?
Sink ecology refers to an ecological concept where a habitat has low resources or unfavorable conditions for a particular species or population, leading to decreased survival and reproduction rates. Sink habitats can attract individuals because they are similar to source habitats, but they ultimately result in reduced fitness and may not contribute to long-term population growth or persistence.
What is an RF input?
An RF (Radio Frequency) input is the technical term for a coaxial/antenna input on the back of a television. This input is often referred to as simply 'cable' or 'cable vision'.
What do you understand by term orbital perturbations?
i understand masurbation.
What term describes where pollutants end up?
A term that is used to tell where pollutants und up is sink.
Why is a sink called a sink?
Probably because it draws/absorbs the heat making the heat "sink" into it
