I assumed 1m radius for the first and 5m for the second, particularly the second sounds off. Anyway... The centripetal force from Earth's rotation is quiet negligible compared to its gravitation.
5 meters is definitely way too short for the chair swing ride. Look at the people in the seats. It's definitely at least 10 meters.
Assuming 10 meters and 100 km/h, that gives about 7.9 g. That's in the range of what fighter pilots might experience and well beyond where most people black out, so that's still definitely too high.
Looking it up online, this is a pretty classic physics problem and the numbers you might see around it are closer to a radius of 12 meters and a speed of 13 to 17 m/s. Taking that as 15 m/s (54 km/h), that works out to about 1.9 g, which I can subjectively say feels much closer to the real value if you ever ride on one of these.
1.) 0.28 g 2.) 15.7 g 3.) 0.0034 g

The 100 km/h seems a bit much to me, too, but I'm having a hard time finding info on the speed of these...

So, the second one is about 1.9 g
