The “Cone Run Uphill” is a classic physics demonstration using a double-ended cone on V-shaped tracks, appearing to defy gravity by rolling uphill because its center of mass actually moves downward as the wider track lowers it, making it great for teaching physics concepts, optical illusions, STEM education, and as a fun desk toy/executive gift that illustrates energy conservation and perception.
