Dec 1, 2020 at 0:09 comment added jacob1729 Are you given initial conditions for the $N+1$st particle? If so then the first $N$ just define a time dependent potential $V(x,t)$ and you have a 1 body problem.

Nov 30, 2020 at 23:09 comment added Vladislav Bezhentsev @Qmechanic♦ No, I don't make such assumption. Is it even meaningful to make such assumptions in newtonian mechanics? Would not it imply that the force acting on the $(N+1)$th body is zero?
Nov 30, 2020 at 22:55 comment added Qmechanic Are you assuming that the $(N+1)$th particle has infinitesimally small mass?
