Time-Averaged Force     Image Added

Impulse and force are closely related. In fact, if a time interval of interest is specified, the impulse imparted by a specific force during that interval can be used to quickly estimate the time-average of that force. The mathematical definition of the time-average of a force is:

[Impulse|impulse] and [force] are closely related.  In fact, if a time interval of interest is specified, the [impulse] imparted by a specific [force] during that interval can be used to quickly estimate the time-average of that [force].  The mathematical definition of the time-average of a force is:
