Yes.

The higher drop weight means the bat is light in relation to the length of the bat. But you must make sure that the bat is not too long for you since using a bat that is too long can make it harder to swing. When choosing a bat the length is just as important as the weight.

The way that the weight would effect the distance of a ball is that if you can handle the more weight, you can generate more power with the heavier bat. I am 6-4, 215 pounds, and I use one of the smallest bats on my team. My theory is that I can create enough bat speed with a shorter, lighter bat to make up for the weight. I can also handle the outside pitch with my long arms so I don't need the length which comes with having a heavier bat (-3).

Yes, for example, if a truck and a golf cart were heading straight for each other, going the same speed, which car would be knocked over? The golf cart. Same thing with a baseball and a bat.

Not really...It is to help give you a faster bat speed. The rest is on the swing/er.

Yes. Given the same bat speed, ball speed, and point of contact, a ball hit with a heavier bat will travel farther. F=ma.

It depends on how hard you hit the ball.
