You'll see a notification near the top of your screen (where your user name and points are now) shortly after your answer is chosen alerting you that you've earned 10 points; it'll also show up in your recent activity (on your My Q&A page) until it's pushed down by other things.

Not really. I always look through all the answers I've gotten and chose the best one. However, I do wish we could pick more than one best answer! There's been quite a few times that I've had a horrible time choosing!♥

No! You just have to make sure you have yahoo answers set up to e-mail you when your question is up for grading or chosing a best answer, i understand what you mean but it is really easy to chose a best  answer, but if you miss it then you get some idiot chosen as best answer.

When a question is resolved, people rate the best answer chosen no matter it is chosen by asker or voters. You have to rate first though to see the result of others' rating, unless it is your own question.

It depends on what level you are on. Look at the point system and it tells you what level your on and how many questions you can answer on that level.
