Hello,
Which multibody blocks will contain the simplest model that simulates a cube (1m x 1m x 1m) falling 10m ?
Thanks

You can use the Block Solid in the Body Elements. Also use the Transform Sensor in the Frames and Transforms to measure the translation and velocity. You also need the Mechanism Configuration block in the Utilities to specify the gravity.

Put a Spatial Contact Force block between the ground and the object. Adjust the Max Step Size parameter in the solver to get correct result (ref to the attached model).
