Impulse (physics)
In classical mechanics, impulse (symbolized by or Imp) is the change in momentum of an object. If the initial momentum of an object is , and a subsequent momentum is , the object has received an impulse : \mathbf=\mathbf_2 - \mathbf_1. Momentum is a Vector (physics), vector quantity, so impulse is also a vector quantity: \sum \mathbf \times \Delta t = \Delta \mathbf. Newton’s second law of motion states that the rate of change of momentum of an object is equal to the resultant force acting on the object: \mathbf=\frac, so the impulse delivered by a steady force acting for time is: \mathbf=\mathbf \Delta t. The impulse delivered by a varying force acting from time to is the integral of the force with respect to time: \mathbf= \int_a^b\mathbf \, \mathrmt. The International System of Units, SI unit of impulse is the newton second (N⋅s), and the dimensional analysis, dimensionally equivalent unit of momentum is the kilogram metre per second (kg⋅m/s).

Impulse Drive
Space travel, or space flight (less often, starfaring or star voyaging) is a science fiction theme that has captivated the public and is almost archetypal for science fiction. Space travel, interplanetary or interstellar, is usually performed in space ships, and spacecraft propulsion in various works ranges from the scientifically plausible to the totally fictitious. While some writers focus on realistic, scientific, and educational aspects of space travel, other writers see this concept as a metaphor for freedom, including "free ngmankind from the prison of the solar system". Though the science fiction rocket has been described as a 20th-century icon, according to ''The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction'' "The means by which space flight has been achieved in sf – its many and various spaceships – have always been of secondary importance to the mythical impact of the theme". Works related to space travel have popularized such concepts as time dilation, space stations, and s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Impulse! Records
Impulse! Records (occasionally styled as "¡mpulse! Records" and "¡!") is an American jazz record label established by Creed Taylor in 1960. John Coltrane was among Impulse!'s earliest signings. Thanks to consistent sales and positive critiques of his recordings, the label came to be known as "the house that Trane built". History Impulse!'s parent company, ABC-Paramount Records, was established in 1955 as the recording division of the American Broadcasting Company (American Broadcasting Company, ABC). In the 1940s and 1950s, ABC benefitted from the U.S. government's antitrust actions against broadcasters and film studios who were forced to divest parts of their companies. In the early 1950s, ABC acquired the Blue Network of radio stations from NBC and later merged with the newly independent Paramount Theaters chain, formerly owned by Paramount Pictures. The new recording division was located at 1501 Broadway, above the Paramount Theatre (New York City), Paramount Theatre in Time ...

Science Fantasy (magazine)
''Science Fantasy'', which also appeared under the titles ''Impulse'' and ''SF Impulse'', was a British fantasy and science fiction magazine, launched in 1950 by Nova Publications as a companion to Nova's '' New Worlds''. Walter Gillings was editor for the first two issues, and was then replaced by John Carnell, the editor of ''New Worlds'', as a cost-saving measure. Carnell edited both magazines until Nova went out of business in early 1964. The titles were acquired by Roberts & Vinter, who hired Kyril Bonfiglioli to edit ''Science Fantasy''; Bonfiglioli changed the title to ''Impulse'' in early 1966, but the new title led to confusion with the distributors and sales fell, though the magazine remained profitable. The title was changed again to ''SF Impulse'' for the last few issues. ''Science Fantasy'' ceased publication the following year, when Roberts & Vinter came under financial pressure after their printer went bankrupt. Gillings had an inventory of material that he had ...
