I'm looking for an idea of what kind of rotation I'd need on a drum with a diameter of about 6 meters to give an object/person on the inside of the drum the feeling of 1/10, 1/3, 1/2, 3/4, 1, and 1.5 g ... is that too hard? Alas, I have no math and I must scream. Said drim to be in a spaceship in orbit, if you care.

As you can see a 3 meter diameter barrel has to spin very fast to
create the affect of 1G of acceleration.


And you must also take into consideration the effect below the 'Floor', if there is anything farther from the center of spin than the barrel floor.
