Well what do you think the differences are?

Try thinking about it another way.

What does solid mean
What does rigid mean
and what are their opposites

Now can a body be both solid and rigid? (yes)

In fact you have four possibilities

1)Solid and rigid
2)Solid and non rigid

3) Rigid and solid (which is the same as 1)
4) Rigid and hollow

However 1 and 3 are the same so there are only 3 distinct possibilities.

I can't believe you can't think of your own football (sorry examples)
