A meteor is a chunk of something burning up in the Earth's atmosphere. It's kind of pointless to wonder about their rotation, because they only exist for a couple of seconds anyway.
If you meant an asteroid ... it depends on the asteroid. 1 Ceres, for example, rotates in about 9 hours; 2 Pallas in a bit under 8 hours; 3 Juno in about 7 hours 12 minutes, 4 Vesta in about 5 hours 20 minutes, and so on. You shouldn't think they're all fast (compared to Earth) either; 10 Hygeia's rotation period is longer than Earth's by over three and a half hours.
Yes, meteors can rotate as they travel through the Earth's atmosphere. This rotation can be caused by irregularities in the meteor's shape or by external forces acting upon it, such as air resistance. The rotation can affect the meteor's trajectory and how it breaks up or disintegrates.
Meteors are not that important, meteorites might be.
Yes, meteors can rotate as they travel through Earth's atmosphere due to the forces acting on them during their descent. This rotation can be caused by factors such as air resistance and the irregular shape of the meteor.
No, meteors are not extinct. Meteors are commonly seen in the Earth's atmosphere as shooting stars when they burn up upon entry. They are remnants of debris from space that enter the Earth's atmosphere.

24 hours rotation
Depending on the axis of rotation, it would be either a vovulus (rotation on the long axis) or a torsion (rotation perpendicular to the long axis).
Comets and meteors are made of rocks and boulders same as on earth. But since they are in space for a long time, they might have some differences, little differences.
People have been seeing meteors as long as people can remember, so there is not a particular time they can be said to have been discovered or a person who can be said to have discovered them.People have been seeing meteors as long as people can remember, so there is not a particular time they can be said to have been discovered or a person who can be said to have discovered them.People have been seeing meteors as long as people can remember, so there is not a particular time they can be said to have been discovered or a person who can be said to have discovered them.People have been seeing meteors as long as people can remember, so there is not a particular time they can be said to have been discovered or a person who can be said to have discovered them.People have been seeing meteors as long as people can remember, so there is not a particular time they can be said to have been discovered or a person who can be said to have discovered them.People have been seeing meteors as long as people can remember, so there is not a particular time they can be said to have been discovered or a person who can be said to have discovered them.People have been seeing meteors as long as people can remember, so there is not a particular time they can be said to have been discovered or a person who can be said to have discovered them.People have been seeing meteors as long as people can remember, so there is not a particular time they can be said to have been discovered or a person who can be said to have discovered them.People have been seeing meteors as long as people can remember, so there is not a particular time they can be said to have been discovered or a person who can be said to have discovered them.People have been seeing meteors as long as people can remember, so there is not a particular time they can be said to have been discovered or a person who can be said to have discovered them.People have been seeing meteors as long as people can remember, so there is not a particular time they can be said to have been discovered or a person who can be said to have discovered them.
Not really; meteors are so insignificant, compared to the mass of the Earth, that it makes precisely zero difference whether the meteor strikes the Earth going with or going against the Earth's rotation. Even a dinosaur killer that would devastate the biosphere isn't going to affect the Earth's rotation.
25 days for a rotation at the equator, 34 days for a rotation near the poles.
Rotation (Retrograde) 243 Days, 0.5 Hours
In earlier times I'm sure it was quite common. They didn't have the advanced equipment that we do today. Now however, scientists identify meteors long before they can be seen from Earth.
Depends on the speed of an object.
