The forces experienced when spinnig cause the fluid inside them to move around and activate the sensitive regions/hairs inside. This makes the body think that it is oriented a particular way when it has moved on from that point. When the fluid suddenly catches up, it confuses the signals sent to the brain causing nausea.
