Cones and cylinders can roll, slide, or do both due to the interaction of forces acting on them. Rolling occurs when the frictional force between the surface and the shape is sufficient to prevent slipping, allowing the object to rotate about its axis while moving forward. Sliding happens when the frictional force is insufficient to maintain this rotation, causing the shape to move without rolling. The specific motion depends on factors like the angle of the surface, the object's weight, and the coefficient of friction.
