Video Synopsis:

The Impulse Momentum Theorem. Impulse=Force x Change in Time

The video uses various trials involving a person on a skateboard being pushed into a force plate. The time interval for the trials is different the second trial has a greater time interval which decreases the force. This has practical application for explaining the reason for air bags in cars.
