Best Answer

When someone is pushed in a swing, the effect would be that their height from the ground would have increased after the push. This increase in height, in physical terms, means that the swing also has an increase in gravitational potential energy, which must be turned back into kinetic energy (or movement energy). This is observed as the swing coming back to you.

Simply put, what goes up, must come down.
