i have a physics question:

why when on a merry-go-round, especially a fast one, you can clearly feel the circular motion and some even get dizzy,

but we dont feel the rotation of the earth?

the merry-go-round is only moving a few miles per hour

the earth is rotating at over 1,000 miles per hour.
