A point on the Earth's surface moves at approximately

(1,670 kilometers per hour) x (cosine of its latitude).

-- 1,670 kilometers per hour on the equator.

-- 1,446 kilometers per hour at 30° latitude

-- 1,181 kilometers per hour at 45° latitude

-- 835 kilometers per hour at 60° latitude

-- 432 kilometers per hour at 75° latitude

-- zero at the poles

How long does it take the earth to spin on its axis if the spin rate is 1670 kilometer and the circumference of the equator is 40000 kilometer?

Cannot be determined with the values you give. A spin rate cannot be defined by a linear dimension, You need to specify the angular dimension and a time value. or the peripheral speed which could be a linear and a time value.
