I've heard that there are more sophisticated approximations like Runge Kutta methods (e.g. RK4). Are these methods more usable than naive Euler's method?

What about approximation methods in multiple dimensions like Newton's method? Are those applicable here?

How would we find the acceleration x^..t in Euler's Method? I assume we calculate the force acting on the object at every discrete time t and then divide it by mass to get the acceleration. Please correct me if I'm wrong!
