This explanation text for P4, linking to the topic forces, describes in detail how the massive fairground wheel (known as a Ferris wheel) works. The labelled diagram explains each part of the wheel: electric motors, hub, drive wheels, drive rim, axels and lorry trailers. It also explains centripetal acceleration otherwise known as the funny feeling in your tummy as you go over the top of the Ferris wheel.
