A common answer to the riddle "What is round but does not roll?" is a coin. Coins are typically circular in shape but usually remain stationary when placed flat on a surface. Other possible answers could include a plate or a button, as they also have a round shape but do not roll.
If two round objects roll down a hill, the one with the greater mass will roll faster. If they are dropped they will fall at the same rate.
To allow it to roll and facilitate kicking A U. S. football is called a prolate spheroid.
A cylinder is a round object with two flat ends, like a paper towel roll. A sphere is completely round, like a ball.
Round things roll due to their shape, which allows them to rotate around a central axis. When a round object is placed on a surface and force is applied, gravity and friction cause it to move smoothly in a circular motion. This rolling motion minimizes resistance and allows for efficient movement, making it easier for the object to travel across surfaces. Additionally, the uniform distribution of mass in a spherical shape contributes to stability while rolling.
At school we played mathopoly, which is a game with monopoly, but you roll, pick up a card, (with a maths question on it) if you got it right, you move round the board, if you get it wrong you miss a go.

Only some but dung beetles roll dung round
Round objects don't have to roll down hill, they can slide if they have a heavier side, but are more likely to roll due to gravity.
roll of toilet paper
A disk, like a CD
Eggs are not round because it is not practical for them to be. They would roll out of nests accidentally.
cylinders: slide on the small sides, roll on the round one
Ones that aren't very round.
A round tootsie roll.
Divide the lenght of the roll by 2*(pi^2) and round to the next number.
Because if they were square they would not roll very well.
