The track is constructed so that it converges at one end that is slightly lower than the other. The double cone is also constructed such that its center of mass is at its lowest at the higher end of the track. When the double cone is placed and released at the low end of the track, it seems to roll uphill, but its center of mass is rolling downhill.
