Betty weighs 427 N and she is sitting on

a playground swing seat that hangs 0.22 m above the ground. Tom pulls the swing back and releases it when the seat is 0.88 m above the ground.
The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2.
How fast is Betty moving when the swing
passes through its lowest position?
