Impulsion
Definition:
(n.) The act of impelling or driving onward, or the state of being impelled; the sudden or momentary agency of a body in motion on another body; also, the impelling force, or impulse.
(n.) Influence acting unexpectedly or temporarily on the mind; sudden motive or influence; impulse.
Example Sentences:
