No. The fastest wind gust ever recorded in a tornado was 302 mph. By comparison, commercial jets regularly fly at 500 mph. Some fighter jets can fly at over 1,000 mph.

How many times can a tornado spin in just 1 minute?

That is highly variable and there is no single answer. A small but intense tornado can rotate 60 or more times in a minute. At the other end a very large tornado might not even complete a full rotation in a minute, at least on the outside. This if further complicated by the fact that a tornado usually spins faster near its center than at its edges.

Why can a girl spin a stick faster than a boy?

Girls are typically smaller than boys. Because they are smaller and more narrow than boys they will meet less air resistance as they spin, causing them to spin faster.
