As it is for an assignment the reasons and explanations are FOBY (find out by yourself..P)
But the simplest factual answer is "Yes"
No, because weight doesn't affect gravity...Remember the whole thing about the bowling ball and the pebble? They both fell at the same time. The only way weight would affect it is a heavier person has a harder time swinging because they're out of shape.
Yes it does. This is physics here. The whole pendulum-gravity-kinetic-potential-energ... ordeal.
Mass x acceleration = gravity
When the swings move, and go up high, they lose kinetic energy and then gravity pulls them down and kinetic energy builds up again then changes into potential as it goes up high again. At the highest points you will have potential energy.

acceleration is directly proportional to mass (newton). as the mass i.e weight is higher its harder to get momentum but once it does the movement of swing becomes more powerful and lasts long
Does weight affect the movement of swings? Like swings on a swing set. This is for an assignment in General Science.
