Tobie · Answer 1

A swing illustrates the transformation between potential and kinetic energy because kinetic energy is the force of energy, so making the swing move would illustrate how you go from potential energy, not moving, to kinetic energy, the force of motion, and how it switches as soon as you use energy to start moving.
