Circular movement under mutual gravitational interaction

Simulation: m-10-circle-c-o-m.txt

 

The simulation shows two objects of different mass orbiting around their common center of mass due to gravitational interaction. If the velocities are changed (sum = zero) the orbits will change from circular to elliptic.
