Just did the math for the cone.

Assuming that the energy is transferred uniformly, if the damage is considered to be 100 (just to make the math easier) at 10 meters
it will be the following at other distances

5m 400
20m 25
30m 11.1108
40m 06.25

You really get cooked in the first zone but mathematically it will disperse quickly due to the power of squares. The damage at distance should probably be reduced a bit further as the wave would lose energy over distance and my calculations are based only on the area of the base of the cone.
