In this episode, I explain how to create a physics update for physics using Newton's second law and D'Almbert's Principle. This involves summing all the forces acting on the "rigidbody" in the frame, and then applying the appropriate laws of physics to simulate movement over time. This will begin to build the basis for how our physics engine will update different rigidbodies throughout the lifetime of the game world. We will specifically focus on linear forces and linear velocity.
