Using implicit wait in selenium

Question

I'm a newbie. I understand what awaits mostly, but I am confused by how various textbooks on the Internet do this and explain it. For example, in the code below, it is placed before the URL is loaded. So, you just have to wait for the URL to load, or to search for the item, or both? Is it true that if I use implicit wait once in my try block, will it be applicable for every element search that I execute in my code?

from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.implicitly_wait(10) # seconds
driver.get("http://somedomain/url_that_delays_loading")
myDynamicElement = driver.find_element_by_id("myDynamicElement")
