If it was possible to create gravitational force by rotating a spacecraft, any guesstimate how large the diameter of the space craft would needs to be so the Coriolis forces will not create havoc with in the astronaut's inner ears. Also this problem would make the astronauts constantly nauseated and vomiting.

Here you go, calculate away!

Spincalc - an artificial-gravity calculator

No guesstimates necessary. :D
