A ="trms"nttrm="righ,rigo,riga,rigi,trig,rign">rigid body is a polygonal or NURBS surface converted to an unyielding shape. Unlike conventional surfaces, ="trms"nttrm="righ,rigo,riga,rigi,trig,rign">rigid bodies collide rather than pass through each other during animation. To animate ="trms"nttrm="righ,rigo,riga,rigi,trig,rign">rigid body motion, you use fields, keys, expressions, ="trms"nttrm="righ,rigo,riga,rigi,trig,rign">rigid body constraints, or collisions with particles.
Maya has two kinds of ="trms"nttrm="righ,rigo,riga,rigi,trig,rign">rigid bodies='lgc'>--active and passive. An active ="trms"nttrm="righ,rigo,riga,rigi,trig,rign">rigid body reacts to dynamics='lgc'>--fields, collisions, and springs='lgc'>--not to keys.
