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.
a. A
b. B
c. C
d. D
e. The force is the same for all die passengers.
