A right circular cone and an oblique circular cone A double cone (not shown infinitely extended) 3D model of a cone. A cone is a three-dimensional geometric shape that tapers smoothly from a flat base (frequently, though not necessarily, circular) to a point called the apex or vertex that is not contained in the base.
The cone over a closed interval I of the real line is a filled-in triangle (with one of the edges being I), otherwise known as a 2-simplex (see the final example). The cone over a polygon P is a pyramid with base P. The cone over a disk is the solid cone of classical geometry (hence the concept's name). The cone over a circle given by
A science project is an educational activity for students involving experiments or construction of models in one of the science disciplines. Students may present their science project at a science fair, so they may also call it a science fair project. Science projects may be classified into four main types. Science projects are done by students ...
Cone of depression occurs in an aquifer when groundwater is pumped from a well; Cone of uncertainty, used in project management to describe the evolution of the amount of best case uncertainty during a project. Hertzian cone, the cone of force that propagates through a brittle, amorphous or cryptocrystalline solid material from a point of impact
[4] [5] An emerging branch of Citizen Science are Community Mapping projects that utilize smartphone and tablet technology. For example, TurtleSAT [6] is a community mapping project that is mapping freshwater turtle deaths throughout Australia. This list of citizen science projects involves projects that engage all age groups.

A subset of a vector space over an ordered field is a cone (or sometimes called a linear cone) if for each in and positive scalar in , the product is in . [2] Note that some authors define cone with the scalar ranging over all non-negative scalars (rather than all positive scalars, which does not include 0). [3]
In flat spacetime, the future light cone of an event is the boundary of its causal future and its past light cone is the boundary of its causal past. In a curved spacetime, assuming spacetime is globally hyperbolic, it is still true that the future light cone of an event includes the
