Demonstrating Impulse is Area Under the Curve

The video tutorial explains the concept of impulse in physics, starting with its derivation from the force of impact equation. It covers both algebraic and calculus-based approaches to understanding impulse, emphasizing that impulse is the area under a force versus time curve. A practical example using a force platform is provided to measure impulse, highlighting discrepancies between calculated and measured values. The video concludes with a discussion on potential reasons for these discrepancies.
