A cone-shaped object will not roll in a straight line because the circumference of the cone changes from one end to the other. For example, if one end of the cone has a circumference of 10 inches, that end will travel 10 inches per revolution, but if the other end of the cone has a 2 inch circumference, it will only travel 2 inches per revolution.
