When Pat ties a swing to a branch of an oak tree the seat of the swing is 22in from the ground if the tree grow 8in ayear how far off the ground will the swing seat be in 512 years?
Assuming the tree is still standing in 512 years, the swing should be the same height off the ground as it was to begin with (22 in.). Trees grow out from the trunks and out and up from the tips of their branches; individual branches - and anything attached to those branches - stay in the same place, just getting longer. The only way that the tree's growth might effect the height of the swing is if the branch starts to sag under its own weight, bringing the swing a little closer to the ground.

How to Hang a Tree Swing?
Trees are an excellent addition to any landscaping plan. Not only do they provide shade and visual appeal, but they also add a recreational element that many families enjoy, especially when there are children around. Hanging a tree swing is a quick and fulfilling afternoon project.1. Select the Type of SwingWhen attaching a swing to a tree, you can select one of several different swing varieties. Choose between a rope swing with one point of contact or a swing that features two handles with the swing suspended between the two points of contact. The most traditional style for a tree swing is the rope swing with just one point of suspension.2. Choose a Suitable BranchSelect a branch that is suitable for the tree swing. The branch you choose should be at least 8 inches around and be firmly attached to the tree. There should be enough of an angle that you can hang the swing about 3 feet out from the tree's trunk without weighing down the branch and causing stress on the joint.3. Add HardwareDrill a hole entirely through the branch in the spot where you intend to hang the tree swing. Drilling the hole will not kill or damage a healthy tree. Place a long eyebolt through the hole with the eye at the bottom of the branch. Secure the top of the eyebolt to the top of the branch with a washer and nuts. Clip a carabiner to the eye of the eyebolt. If you are attaching a swing with two points of contact, repeat this process for the other rope.4. Secure the RopeRun your length of rope through the carabiner. For the safest performance, select a rope that is at least three-fourth-inch around. Secure the rope by pulling it through the carabiner and tying it back on itself using a bowline knot.5. Attach the SeatSecure the rope to the seat of the swing. Adjust the rope's length so that the seat falls at the correct distance to the ground. Drill a hole through the seat and run the end of the rope through that opening. Tie the rope underneath the seat, securing with a figure-eight knot.
