Why is a tornado called a funnel?
A tornado is called a funnel because of its shape - it often appears as a rotating column of air that narrows towards the base, resembling a funnel or a cone. This funnel shape is created as the tornado draws in debris and moisture from the ground, giving it its characteristic appearance.
Why do tornadoes have a spiral shape?
Tornadoes take on a spiral shape because the winds in them spin and move upward. This is because tornadoes originate from the rotating updraft of a supercell thunderstorm. The updraft gets this rotation from wind shear.
Do tornadoes come in different sizes and shapes?
Yes. Tornadoes vary greatly in size and shape, ranging from narrow and threadlike spin-ups, to massive cones and vertical columns, to enormous wedge tornadoes that appear wider than they are tall.
What is a cone shaped tornado?
A cone-shaped tornado is simple a tornado whose funnel is cone-shaped. Tornado funnels may also appear rope-like, column-like, or appear wispy. The shape and size of a tornado do not necessarily indicate how strong the tornado is.
What is apical angle in cone?
The apex angle is the angle in a cone that the apex, or point, of the cone takes. This is measured from two opposite sides of the cone, which is found by drawing a line from the apex to the center of the circular base, then drawing a plane through this line and using the lines of the plane's intersection of the cone to measure the angle.

What other shapes can tornadoes be?
Tornadoes come in a variety of shapes. Most commonly they appear as an elephant truck or elongated cone. In other cases they may take the shape of a wider cone, or an hourglass. Some appear as simple vertical columns while others look like massive wedges driven into the ground.
Are tornadoes always the same shape?
No. Tornadoes vary in shape. While the classic shape of a tornado is that of an elongated cone or elephant trunk, tornadoes may appear as balls of dust, massive wedges, and nearly perfect vertical columns. Some tornadoes even have multiple funnels.

What shape is formed by the intersection of a cone and a plane that is parallel to a cone's base not containing the cone's vertex?
The shape described by the intersection of the cone and the plane is simply a circle.
