How are roller coasters designed to produce a sense that the coaster is traveling faster than it really is travelling?

The roller coaster implements g-force manipulation. Its forces make you feel as light as air one second and as heavy as a rock the next. ... go faster and have tighter curves and higher loops and still travel in perfect safety.
