Why do we feel uneasy when ferry wheels moves downwards?

Solution

Ferry wheel physics is related to centripetal acceleration, which results in the riders feeling heavier or lighter depending on the position on the Ferry level.
$N_{2} > N_{1}$
$a_{p} \to$ acceleration centripetal
$a_{p} = ω^{2} \cdot R$
$N_{1} = m (g - a_{p}), N_{2} = m (g + a_{p})$
