Remove use of the word "force" in describing ApplyImpulse methods (#976)
## Changes
Since the various ApplyImpulse functions apply a "pure" impulse
(resulting in an instantaneous change in velocity), using the word
"force" is misleading. A force must be applied over some finite time
span to produce a velocity change, whereas an impulse is applied
instantaneously. This has led to confusion among developers.
