This means the circumference is about 1000 meters, so v is 1000 meters per minute, which yields a simulated gravity about 1/6 of Earth's -- the same as the moon (though the people inside move as though the gravity is Earth-normal).

A malfunction made the Soyuz enter Earth's atmosphere at a steeper angle than normal and the crew experienced “ballistic” descent at eight times the force of Earth-normal gravity.

The premise of the story is very promising—on a planet where men cannot reasonably expect to live, due to horrifically cold temperature, an unsuitable atmosphere, and gravity that begins with three times Earth-normal and runs to 700 times what we experience, men have to enlist the aid of the natives to find a scientific probe.

Thus I view 120 meters as the smallest asteroid worthy of capture, since it is barely large enough to build a permanent habitat rotating at 3rpm for Earth-normal gravity and with adequate radiation and meteoroid shielding.

With friction reduced and inertia increased, the components tumbled off the trolley and into the ship's Earth-normal gravity.

He had been trying to end an unsatisfactory relationship with Geril, who had been so insistent that he'd had to change his quarters from the ship-born to the 'visitor' area of Earth-normal section of the compound ARCT-10, in order to avoid her.

The above ramble describes the capacity of a 100-meter radius cylinder, spinning at 3 rpm to provide Earth-normal gravity.

The only think likely to be rare possibly even unique in our Galaxy is a world with 1.0 Earth gravity, 15psi of surface pressure with 3psi being oxygen, 12psi of nitrogen and just traces of CO2 and H2O, with a crust 70% covered with oceans under partly cloudy blue skies and an average temperature a bit above freezing, with 24 hour days and an Earth-normal brightness.
