Imposition has two main uses. First, it's the act of officially forcing a rule, tax, or punishment onto people - 'the imposition of new taxes' means the government is making people pay them. Second, and more common in everyday speech, an imposition is something that puts an unfair burden or demand on someone else - if you ask a big favor, you might say 'I hope this isn't too much of an imposition,' meaning 'I hope I'm not asking too much of you.'
