In kinematics the product of Force and Time is called the Impulse. It has the same dimensions as Momentum.

Thus Force has dimensions [M][L][T-2], so Impulse has dimensions [M][L][T-1], which is the same as Momentum which is Mass x Velocity. So if you apply an impulse of value Ft to a body it causes a change in momentum MV2 - MV1.
