Some extra help
Calculate for each body in the system and every other body:
- distance square = (x distance between itself and the other body)^2 + (y distance between itself and the other body)^2
- force = G * its mass * the other’s mass / distance^2
- forceX = force * (the other’s x position – its x position )/ distance
- forceY = force * (the other’s y position – its y position )/ distance
- accelerationX = forceX / its mass
- accelerationY = forceY / its mass
- velocityX += deltaT * accelerationX
- velocityY += deltaT * accelerationY
update the new position for the body
- x position += deltaT * velocityX
- y position += deltaT * velocityY
