What is rigid body?

There is a rod of lenght $l$, mass $m$ lying on a fixed horizontal smooth table. A cord is led through a pulley, and its horizontal part is attached to one end of the rod, while its vertical part is attached to a block of mass $m_1$.  Assume pulley and the cord is ideal. The maximum possible acceleration of the rod's centre of mass $C$ (for all possible values of masses $m$ and $m_1$) at the moment of releasing the block $m_1$ is $\frac{g}{n}$.  Find the value of $n$

Difference between rigid body and solid body.

In the following figure, a body of mass $m$ is tied at one end of a light string and this string is wrapped around the solid cylinder of mass $M$ and radius $R$. At the moment $t = 0$ the system starts moving. If the friction is negligible, angular velocity at time $t$ would be
