To solve the problem of finding the maximum compression of each steel cube after they collide, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Gather the Given Data - Mass of each cube, \( m = 50 \, \text{g} = 50 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{kg} \) - Side length of each cube, \( L = 1 \, \text{cm} = 0.01 \, \text{m} \) - Speed of each cube before collision, \( v = 10 \, \text{cm/s} = 0.1 \, \text{m/s} \) - Young's modulus for steel, \( Y = 2 \times 10^{11} \, \text{N/m}^2 \) ...
