What force makes a swing on set work?

The force of gravity makes the swing set work.

*When a person sits on the swing, their weight pulls the swing down, thus stretching the chains.*

*This creates tension in the chains, which causes them to oscillate back and forth.*

*The person's weight, combined with the tension in the chains, allows them to swing back and forth.*
