It might make me a dork but I love to swing. There so much fun! You can pump your legs to make yourself go higher or jump off the swing to stop yourself. Swings also help demonstrate inertia. When you first get on a swing, the swing will stay still until you start pumping your legs back and force, providing a force. Then, the swing goes higher and higher because of the force your legs are providing. You will keep doing this, until you drag your legs through the sand to slow down the swing. This helps demonstrate Newton’s 1st law. An object in motion will stay in motion or an object at rest will stay at rest until a force acts upon it.
