About This Product
As the cone moves along the diverging rails it seems to climb, yet its centre of gravity is actually falling. This makes it a clear demonstration of centre of gravity, stable equilibrium and the conversion of potential energy. Educational Instrument can dispatch the Anti Gravity Cone to laboratories in Yemen, Bangladesh, Turkmenistan, Georgia and Indonesia.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Anti Gravity Cone really roll uphill?
It only appears to. As the rails spread apart the cone sinks between them, so its centre of gravity drops even though it seems to climb the incline.
