  2. Cone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cone

    The lateral surface area of a right circular cone is = where is the radius of the circle at the bottom of the cone and is the slant height of the cone. [4] The surface area of the bottom circle of a cone is the same as for any circle, . Thus, the total surface area of a right circular cone can be expressed as each of the following: Radius and ...

  3. Solid angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_angle

    Diagram showing a section through the centre of a cone (1) subtending a solid angle of 1 steradian in a sphere of radius r, along with the spherical "cap" (2). The external surface area A of the cap equals r2 only if solid angle of the cone is exactly 1 steradian. Hence, in this figure θ = A/2 and r = 1.

  4. Steradian - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steradian

    A steradian can be defined as the solid angle subtended at the centre of a unit sphere by a unit area (of any shape) on its surface. For a general sphere of radius r, any portion of its surface with area A = r 2 subtends one steradian at its centre. [3] A solid angle in the form of a circular cone is related to the area it cuts out of a sphere:

  5. Nose cone design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nose_cone_design

    In all of the following nose cone shape equations, L is the overall length of the nose cone and R is the radius of the base of the nose cone. y is the radius at any point x, as x varies from 0, at the tip of the nose cone, to L. The equations define the two-dimensional profile of the nose shape. The full body of revolution of the nose cone is ...

  6. Spherical sector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_sector

    In geometry, a spherical sector, [1] also known as a spherical cone, [2] is a portion of a sphere or of a ball defined by a conical boundary with apex at the center of the sphere. It can be described as the union of a spherical cap and the cone formed by the center of the sphere and the base of the cap. It is the three-dimensional analogue of ...

  9. Circle of confusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_of_confusion

    Circle of confusion. In optics, a circle of confusion (CoC) is an optical spot caused by a cone of light rays from a lens not coming to a perfect focus when imaging a point source. It is also known as disk of confusion, circle of indistinctness, blur circle, or blur spot. In photography, the circle of confusion is used to determine the depth of ...
