If we were to design a space station for long term habitation by humans, we will need to find some way to replicate the force of gravity on the station. Without this artificial gravity, human growth would be stunted and biological functions will break down. One method of creating artificial gravity is by designing your cylindrically shaped and having it rotate. Human beings can then walk on the inside of the outer edge of the cylinder. (See the diagram below) Let's assume that your space station has a diameter of D = 2535 m such that it is large enough that the curvature is not noticeable by the inhabitants. How many minutes will it take for the space station to spin one complete revolution in order for the artificial gravity to be equivalent to that of earth?

Hello I needed help with this question.
The Earth spins at 460 meters per second at the equator. The radius of the Earth is 6.37 x 106 m. A person who believes in a flat Earth says that if the Earth was round and spinning that fast we would all fly off. Imagine if you were standing inside a hollow earth. How much centripetal acceleration would you experience? How does this compare to the acceleration due to gravity we feel at the Earth’s surface? Does it explain why we don’t fly off the Earth due to the spin?
The spaceship Palomino approaches star XYZ to study it by going into a circular orbit of radius 1.0·107 km. All that is known initially is that a planet orbits this star at a distance of 1.86·108 km taking a time of 271 Earth-days to make one full orbit. At what speed should the ship orbit the star at? What is the gravitational acceleration on the Palomino due to this star's gravity? (c) What is the ratio of the mass of star XYZ with that of the Sun? (MSun = 1.987·1030 kg)

In many new science fiction movies large space ships simulate gravity by make very large cylindrical vessels that rotate at correct speeds. If one such space ship has a radius of R = 53.1 m, how many revolutions per hour does it need to make so that the passengers feel the proper simulation of gravity as they are on the edge? R
