An oval-shaped object used in physics diagrams to represent an arbitrary massive continuum undergoing rigid-body motion. Called such because often the drawn object resembles a potato
In Figure 1, for any two points A and B located on the potato, the relative position of point B with respect to point A is given by the vector (X_B - X_A) in the reference configuration and equivalently by the vector (X'_B - X'_A) in the moving configuration. The rigid body assumption states that the only changes in configuration the potato is allowed to undergo are ones in which the magnitude of the relative position vector (X'_B - X'_A) stays the same over the course of the transformation.
