1. They drew power from their tail, which is why they were weaker after having it removed.
2. Well, I'm not sure what the question entails. If you mean the first one to ever create dragon balls, I don't recall that ever being mentioned. If you mean the first to create them on Earth, it was the Nameless Namek (before he split into Kame and King Piccolo). Because he was more powerful than Kame (having not split into good and evil beings), his dragon didn't have the restrictions Kame's did. Those are the Black Star Dragon Balls. But I am sure that Guru made dragon balls before he did on the planet Namek, and those can be considered more powerful (based on your own opinions because it has different restrictions).
3. Dr. Gero shows up as Android 20

7. It can can extend all the way to the moon if the wielder wills it to, but it's main purpose was to be used to climb from Korin's tower to Kame's Lookout.
8. Super Ghost Kamikaze Attack
9. Yamcha was afraid of women
10. He trained Master Roshi, Goku, Krillin, Yamcha, Tien, Chiaotzu, and Yaijirobe, so that is 7. I can't recall anymore.
