Questions for the experts!

1.Does the length of a (Dob) driven reflecting telescope effect the speed of the drive? As an example: A 1200 mm Dob and a 2400 mm Dob.
2.Does Latitude change the speed of the drive?
3.Viewing a Star low in the Northern sky and viewing a star overhead. Any difference in rotational speed of the telescope?

If we divide 24 hours into into 360 degrees of a circle, what portion of that circle, measured in degrees, does the moon advance in 30 seconds?
