The angle narrows as speed goes up
A faster supersonic aircraft would typically produce a narrower conical shock wave due to the leading edges of its wings and fuselage pushing air molecules quickly aside. This rapid displacement of air creates a more condensed shock wave compared to a slower supersonic aircraft.
The conical angle of a shock wave narrows down as the speed of a supersonic aircraft increases. This is because at higher speeds, the shock wave needs to adjust to account for the increased airspeed and compressibility effects, resulting in a narrower cone angle.
Generally speaking, a conical shock wave indicates a disturbance(in this case an aircraft) in the air travelling at a speed greater than that of the sound. But this only happens under ideal conditions. Real aircraft have very complex shapes and some part of the aircraft may experience shock wave earlier than the rest (over the bubble canopy or over the wing), so you usually don't get to find a perfect conical shock wave forming around an aircraft in real life.
Conical flux is a term used in physics to describe the flow of a field through a conical surface. This arises in various fields such as electromagnetics, fluid dynamics, and heat transfer. The conical shape of the surface plays a role in determining the behavior of the flux.
The length of a solid conical frustum is the distance from the top to the bottom of the frustum along its central axis.

A conical frustum, tat is, a cone with its apex cut off. It is usually NOT a cylinder because it gets narrower as you get higher.

conical is an adjectiveso, for example: "It had a conical shape"
The spinner on a plane is a conical fairing that covers the front of the propeller hub, helping to streamline airflow and reduce drag. It also protects the propeller assembly and can improve the overall aerodynamic efficiency of the aircraft. Additionally, spinners contribute to the aesthetic appeal of the aircraft's design.
A conical flask.
There is no meaning of conical flasks. They have uses.
