WONDERFUL CONCEPT OF INERTIA HYPOTHETICAL SYLLOGISM ((PQ) (QR))(PR) INTRODUCTION: Hypothetical syllogism is rule that can be use to do relationship

p for any situation. We can apply concept of hypothetical syllogism in our everyday life. This concept can be use in machine, to investigate criminal, in studying biology, chemistry, physic and so on. So now I want to apply hypothetical syllogism in study about concept of inertia. If you realize that concept of inertia is really wonderful. We can see, concept of inertia is always happen in our daily life no matter what we do. Example of concept inertia in our everyday life are when we want to play football, drive car, move the trolley and so on. Inertia is a property of matter. It is that property of matter which opposes changes in velocity. Simply stated, a common object will not change its velocity spontaneously. That is, if something is moving along at a constant speed in a straight line, it will continue to move along at the same constant speed in the same straight line. It will not, all on its own, speed up, slow down, or change direction. Something else must push on the object to speed it up, slow it down, or change its direction. Also, if something is standing still, it will, if left to itself, continue to stand still. Something else must push on an object to get it moving. Newtons first law of motion and also known as law of inertia states that an object at rest stay at rest and a moving object tend to continue it uniform motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless being acted upon by an external force. Inertia helps to explain why many objects act in specific ways. For example, understanding the role of external forces in the principle of inertia helps a person understand why a ball that is thrown up in the air doesn't keep flying forever. It also helps to explain why brakes use friction to help slow down a bike, or why an apple falling from a tree is stopped when it hits the ground. As a basic example, one could consider a driver in a car. When the car is moving at a certain speed, all objects in that car including the driver are moving at that speed. When the car

stops, the objects in the car continue to move forward unless an outside force, like a seat belt, act upon them. There are relationship between mass and inertia. When the mass is increase, the inertia also will increase. This relationship will be explained by using rule of inference. We using hypothetical syllogism.

Train has big mass So it has big inertia

Baby trolley has small mass, so it has small inertia

Example of question 1: If an object has a big mass, then it will have big have big inertia. If an object have big inertia, then it is difficult to move that object from it rest. If an object has big mass, then it is difficult to move the object from it rest.

Example of question 2: If Ali brings trolley that has 100 kg of potato, then he needs to use big force to bring that trolley to the car parking If Ali need to use big force to bring that trolley to the car parking, then this show that the trolley bring by Ali has big inertia

If Ali bring trolley that have 100 kg of potato, then this show that the trolley bring by Ali have big inertia.

Answer 1: P= Object has a big mass Q= Object has big inertia R = Difficult to move object from it rest PQ QR PR The rules of inference that we use is hypothetical syllogism

Answer 2: P=Ali bring trolley that have 10 kg of potato Q=He need to use big force to bring that trolley to the car parking R=This show that the trolley bring by Ali have big inertia PQ QR PR The rules of inference we use is hypothetical syllogism
