how do i use the word 'сходиться' meaning 'to assemble'?

and how do i use the word 'расходиться' meaning to disperse?

do you use these words?

"сходиться" - when objects moves to each other, and become closer.
"расходиться" - when objects moves from each other, and becomes more far from each other.

Also often used in mathematics for sequences that converge (the values come closer and closer to some points) and diverge (the values don't). I wonder if I used them in these contexts much more often than in their ordinary meaning.

Usually translation of separate words does not work without the context.
