Could have been something coming into the atmo from leo, space trash maybe. You got lucky enough to watch it burn for its full time.
You also could have easily overestimated the time frame. During periods of heightened excitement, or awareness for other reasons. you could have felt like 45 secs in the space of 15 perhaps depending upon how excited you were.

length
And how did you know the length? How did you measure this?
speed
Same question.
You didn't then and don't know. You're (your brain is) just making things up to fit whatever thoughts you're having on it. It's called coaping, it's normal.
