A standard USB port (non 3.0) can provide up to 500mAh of power. This is on full power mode.
A 3.0 port can, if plugged into a 3.0 device, provide up to 900mAh if configured to do so.
A USB hub that runs on the power provided though the USB cable (rather than a USB hub powered by an external electrical supply).
Pin 1 is 5 volts DC Pin 4 is ground.

A computer's power supply unit provides all needed voltages for the components of a computer that are internal. Externals either draw power from the USB bus (which in turn gets it's power from the aforementioned PSU or a Hub with a power supply) OR have their own internal power supply with a cable.
USB 3.1 (C) can deliver a power output of up to 100 watts (20 volts and 5 amps).
Yes, a USB port can supply a small amount of power for attached devices.
Yes as long as the hard drive has its own power supply and not powered by the USB port.
A USB hard disks that does not require a power supply is powered by your computer via the USB connection. Where as others require an external power supply because of the amount of power they require.

A USB hub that runs on the power provided though the USB cable (rather than a USB hub powered by an external electrical supply).
The USB hub can supply power through the USB cable itself. Sometimes, the device requires more power than the hub can provide. In that case, there is usually a power adapter to an outlet in your house to power it and a USB cable to make the connection. Also USB cord supplies power to devices that require less than 500mA(milliamperes) current.
Pin 1 is 5 volts DC Pin 4 is ground.
It can supply power from the computer to devices.
