you can compare the swing motion to the motion of simple pendulum
well in a simple pendulum the time for to nd fro motion is called time period is propotional to the sq. root of length.
T=2(pi) sq.root(l/g)
l is length of pendulum
g is acc. due to gravity at dat point
now ,the length is important here
length is the dis. of the point of suspention to the centre of mass of the body hanging,so if u stand the centre of mass moves up rather than sitting .
which means more time period wen we sit than stand

Why is the longer leg longer than the shorter leg if the shorter leg is longer than the longer leg?
Because if the shorter leg was shorter than the longer leg was long, then the longer leg wouldn't be longer than the shorter leg is short. The short leg would be the longer one rather than the long one being the short one.

What does a dream mean if you dream that you and a guy are the only ones on a playground You were the one swinging and the guy was on the other side of the playground watching you?
you have to analyze everything you remember from the dream..what was the weather like, what did you see or sense, how did his staring make you feel? The swing suggests you were having fun or creating your own happiness and the playground suggests aspects of childhood memories and playfullness. This dream suggests a playful flirtation rather than a serious relationship. The dreamer is keeping her distance to avoid involvement.
