People sit on a Ferris wheel at points A, B, C, and D. The Ferris wheel travels at a constant
angular velocity. At the instant shown, which person experiences the largest force from his or
her chair (back and seat)? Assume you can neglect the size of the chairs- that is, the people
are located the same distance from the axis of rotation.
