  2. Impulse (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impulse_(physics)

    The impulse delivered by a varying force is the integral of the force F with respect to time: =. The SI unit of impulse is the newton second (N⋅s), and the dimensionally equivalent unit of momentum is the kilogram metre per second (kg⋅m/s).

  3. Newton's laws of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_laws_of_motion

    [10] [11] Moreover, words which are synonymous in everyday speech are not so in physics: force is not the same as power or pressure, for example, and mass has a different meaning than weight. [12] [13]: 150 The physics concept of force makes quantitative the everyday idea of a push or a pull. Forces in Newtonian mechanics are often due to ...

  4. Dirac delta function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirac_delta_function

    [5]: 174 The Dirac delta is used to model a tall narrow spike function (an impulse), and other similar abstractions such as a point charge, point mass or electron point. For example, to calculate the dynamics of a billiard ball being struck, one can approximate the force of the impact by a Dirac delta.

  5. Impulse response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impulse_response

    In signal processing and control theory, the impulse response, or impulse response function (IRF), of a dynamic system is its output when presented with a brief input signal, called an impulse (δ(t)). More generally, an impulse response is the reaction of any dynamic system in response to some external change.

  6. Newton-second - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton-second

    The newton-second (also newton second; symbol: N⋅s or N s) [1] is the unit of impulse in the International System of Units (SI). It is dimensionally equivalent to the momentum unit kilogram-metre per second (kg⋅m/s). One newton-second corresponds to a one-newton force applied for one second.

  7. Work (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work_(physics)

    A force is said to do positive work if it has a component in the direction of the displacement of the point of application. A force does negative work if it has a component opposite to the direction of the displacement at the point of application of the force. [1]

  9. Newton (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_(unit)

    A newton is defined as 1 kg⋅m/s 2 (it is a named derived unit defined in terms of the SI base units). [1]: 137 One newton is, therefore, the force needed to accelerate one kilogram of mass at the rate of one metre per second squared in the direction of the applied force.
