What forces make marbles roll?
The force that makes objects roll is gravity
Which force makes a thrown ball fall back to the ground?
Gravity is the force which makes a thrown ball fall back to the ground. It is the force which attracts all objects to the Earth.
If you roll a ball across the floor you put the ball in motion but after time the ball stops. Does this violate Newton's first law?
No. (Friction is a force.)
Why do things roll downhill?
A ball rolls down hill because there is no force preventing it from moving. If there was an object in the way, that would be the force that counters the movement/roll.
What force makes a straw and clay ball float?
Buoyancy

What force makes a soccer ball stop?
The force of friction stops the soccer ball
What makes a solid figure roll?
A force acting on it.
What force causes a bowling ball to roll down the hill?
No. Speed and force cause a bowling ball to roll down a lane. Friction may cause a bowling ball to change course on a lane though, and also slow it down.
What makes a ball roll slower on grass than on a sidewalk?
Is it Inertia

Is the effect of grass or dirt surface on the distance a ball can roll?
Grass makes a ball roll slower then it would on a dirt surface. This is because the long grass blades cause more friction on the ball slowing it down.
What force makes a golf ball sink in water?
Gravity.
What force makes a straw and clay ball float?
Buoyancy
When you roll a tennis ball on grass what forces act on the tennis ball?
You get frictional force. That is because when the tennis ball furr and the grass rubs together you et friction.
