There are two different answers, if the ball is not in play there is no penalty, and you can replace it. If the ball is in play there is a one shot penalty and you must replace the ball to it's original position, failure to do so results in a two shot penalty in stroke play or loss of hole in matchplay.
What determines if the ball is in play? The ball is in play once a stroke has been made hitting the ball, so essentially on each hole, once you've hit the ball off the teeing ground, the ball is in play.

no is what most people think, but you have a one stroke penalty if you do.
There is no difference.
If you are playing in a 4 man scramble tournament a "power drive" allows each person who chooses to move up 1 tee box to hit. I.E. the men hit from the senior tees, the seniors hit from the ladies tee, and the ladies usually, hit from the first fairway cut.
They hit their first shot on a new hole from the tee box, in between the tee markers as per the rules of golf.
yes. it is possible to hit the tee with out moving the golf ball it just depends on how you hit it
After you have hit your tee shot, the next time you can tee up a ball is the next hole, unless you need to hit a provisional tee shot.
