In a collision, a force acts upon an object for a given amount of time to change the object's velocity. The product of force and time is known as impulse. The product of mass â¦ and velocity change is known as momentum change. In a collision the impulse encountered by an object is equal to the momentum change it experiences.Impulse = Momentum Change.
In addition to the locus coeruleus existing as a source of the neurotransmitter norepinephrine within the central nervous system, the adrenal gland can also release norepinephrine during a stress response into the bodyâs blood stream, at which point norepinephrine acts as a hormone in the endocrine system.
The stress response is complex and can influence heart, kidney, liver, and endocrine system function. Many factors can start the stress response, but physical stressors are most important. In order for the body to respond to, and cope with, physical stress, the adrenal glands make more cortisol. If the adrenal glands do not respond, this can be a life-threatening problem.
