Question

How do riders in a Ferris wheel
possess translatory motion but
not rotatory motion?give detailed answer​

Answer 1

Answer:

In a Ferris wheel, you may have noticed on the topmost point, you are not upside down, rather, you are sitting vertically. This shows that the carriages in the Ferris wheel are pivoted and you are not moving through the axis of the rotatory motion. Thus, you experience translatory motion not rotatory motion.
