When you are on a swing, and at the lowest point of your motion, is your apparent weight greater than, less than, or equal to your true weight? explain

In a circular motion there must be a centripetal force directed towards the center. At the bottom of the swing trajectory we can pretend you are in uniform circular motion, so the net force points up toward the center of the circle. Therefore, the swing must exert a larger upward force on you than the earth does in the downward direction. So your apparent weight is greater than your true weight.

Iread this book last year so take this with a grain of salt.gene jumps from the tree to compete with finny due to the fact that gene is always trying to do better than finny. he is put under the grasp of peer pressure due to finny almost forcing him to do this. ever since he first jumped finny kept pressuring him to jump since he thought gene enjoyed jumping.rather than uses this answer you should probably just reread chapters 3-4
