A
swing is a hanging seat, often found at
playgrounds for children including adults a
circus for
acrobats, or on a
porch for relaxing, although they may also be items of indoor furniture, such as the Indian
oonjal. The seat of a swing may be suspended from chains or ropes. Once a swing is in motion it continues to
oscillate like a
pendulum until external interference or drag brings it to a halt. Swing sets are very popular with children.
