Take an impulse to run or reach something by moving your body by jumping. It is known as impulse to the emissions of electricity, the currents or the waves of the nervous impulse that happen in a neuron when the information passes, also to the uncontrolled and excessive desire that produces the desire to do something, such as eat, scream, laugh or of having something no matter how it is achieved, regardless of the actions and consequences that would come later.
The impulses come from the internal and external, they are stimulated by desires and feelings, from the visual and auditory part, such as taste when savoring a delicious cake, watching a movie or listening to a melody, a variety of impulses can be unleashed stimulants that make people want and do different acts, such as buying the CD of the movie or the singer, something that the impulse that the actor or singer produces in his career elevates him to an improvement in his professional and personal life. These types of impulses stimulate and push the action of doing and feeling.
The force applied or that is printed on an object so that it moves, naturally as happens with a sailboat that uses the impulse given by the wind and the waves of the sea to acquire force and speed to be able to move, the manual way using some oars in a boat applying the momentum with them with the arms. In mechanics the electrical force that a motor prints in its discharges is known that gives enough force to move things, like an outboard motor or a car at high speed.
The momentum makes objects or things happen, that they move, varying the force applied to them, Isaac Newton known as the father of physics, in his second law explains that a force applied to an object or body, is proportional to the speed and acceleration that the same object obtains, the amount of impulse imposed on the movement is linked to achieve the force and speed of the body or object.
