It is neither a force nor an event, and it is often idealized as a step- function to make calculations simpler.
It is neither a force nor an event, and it is often idealized as a step- function to make calculations simpler. It is measured in Huygens, which is equivalent to the Newton-second, and in the case of a time-varying force, it is the integral of that force with respect to time. In the case of a constant force, it is equal to the mass times the change in velocity, thus the force is equal to it divided by the change in time. FTP, identify this physical measure that is the product of the force and the time during which it acts, thus yielding a change in momentum.
