    "Impulse" is (force applied) x (time that the force lasts).

    [Force] x [time] units are [Newton] x [second].

    If you go a little farther, it turns out that 'impulse' directly

    produces a change in momentum, so it should have the

    same units as momentum ... [mass] x [speed].

    In fact, it does! But I doubt that you want me to go into that

    right now, since you really didn't ask about it. So you'll just

    have to take my word for it: Impulse and momentum both have

    the same units.
