As Many as your Memory (RAM) and CPU SPeed can handle. If you are lucky enough to purchase a newly retired NASA PC, This concern of your your will magically disappear.
A mainframe
The OS (Operating System) ensures that all the software has access to the different resources it need to run successfully and controls the running and scheduling of all these processes and manages the share of the Central Processing Unit's processing time that is used by the different processes, making the computer run effictively.
The computer would shut down long before all processes were ended, since there are system-critical processes that trigger an auto-shutdown when they are ended. In addition, many system-critical processes are protected from being ended.

By definition a Computer because it "Computes" and "Processes" data.
Without virtual memory some computer programs wont be able to run. As the memory increases the computer may slow down its processes.
Use a fast computer; or take measures to make your computer faster. For example, close all non-essential programs, do a disk defragmentation, run an antivirus (many viruses will slow down the computer), check open processes to see if anything is running that you don't need.

The CPU (processor?) handles all processes run on the computer, so in this case it processes and sends data to the hard drive (storage). You can think of the cpu a bit like your brain, in a way it controls everything else connected to the computer and is itself probably the most important computer component.
i would try to shut down as many as possible processes which are not necessary for the computer
A computer processes data by sorting, merging and making calculations to add more meaning to it. This is done by the computer's CPU.
A natural disaster like a flood or lightening strike. An electrical fire. An IT infrastructure failure is the damage or destruction of computer equipment, software and the processes run on the computer system.
