An object that has a definite size and shape is classified as a solid in the field of physics. Solids have a fixed volume and maintain their shape under normal conditions due to strong intermolecular forces holding their particles in a rigid structure. This is in contrast to liquids and gases, which do not have a definite shape and can flow to conform to the shape of their container.
