Earth rotates about itself with an angular velocity
= ω = 2π /(86400) rad/sec = 72.722 micro radians/sec
Radius of Earth at equator = R = 6,400 km
acceleration due to gravity = g at Equator = GMe/R² = 9.81 m/sec²
Centripetal force on a mass m on the equator = m R ω²
Apparent weight = m g - m R ω₁² = 0 => weightlessness
ω₁ = √(g/R) = 1.238 milli radians/sec
ω₁ / ω = 17.023
SO Earth rotates about itself 17 times faster than now, then the people and objects on the Equator will feel weightlessness.
