Derive the orbit of the Moon around the Earth by doing a Verlet algorith of Molecular Dynamics simulation. Use one hour for your step τ. Place the stationary Earth at the origin of the Cartesian system. For initial conditions, use the position and the speed of the Moon when it is at its apogee (furthest from Earth). Plot the orbit.
