A year

The time it takes any astronomical body to orbit the sun is that bodies year. By definition.

The year may be of different lengths of time depending on the distance from the sun. But it is still the local year

Moving around Earth is not called rotation, but revolution ("the object revolves"). Rotation is used for a circular movement of an object around its own axis.

If something revolves around Earth, it is not called a meteor, but a satellite.

The only known natural satellite is the Moon.

For something to revolve around Earth, it will take one and a half hours (if it close to Earth), or less (if it is farther away). For example, the Moon takes about 27 days for a complete revolution.

That's kind of an open question really.

It depends on the distance, speed, and mass of the meteorite.

Well, according to studies, it would not ever hit the earth unless it has a jet pack strapped to its back or springy shoes.

Meteors rotate at random rates but are unlikely to rotate very quickly unless they have hit something.
