swing motion
Back and forth
Swing motion describes movement along a curved arc, like a pendulum or a golfer's club traveling through its path.
The term appears in sports analysis, physical therapy, and mechanical engineering to distinguish arcing movements from linear ones.
In legal contexts, particularly legislative procedure, a swing motion can change the direction of debate or voting.
