A very large force that acts for a very short time but with a time integral that is finite
is called an impulsive force. Shown in figure below, is the force p(t) = 1/ε, with time
duration ε starting at the time instant t = τ. As ε approaches zero the force becomes
infinite; however, the magnitude of the impulse, defined by the time integral of p(t),
remains equal to unity. Such a force in the limiting case ε → 0 is called the unit
impulse.
