A short circuit conductor is just a conductor in an unexpected location, often with much lower resistance that is expected for the normal load.
This cannot be answered without knowing what size load you are connecting to the circuit. In the absence of a load, with a dead short, you will get a flow of amps at the maximum that the power supply can provide. I have no way of knowing what that is.
Yes, a breaker will trip if there is a short circuit occurring on the breaker's connected load. The breaker will also trip on an overload condition when the current rises above the breakers trip set point.
No. A short by definition is bypassing the load and returning back to the source without going through the load. Try breaking the circuit at the mid-point and see if the short remains. If it remains, the short is on the HALF closer to the source If it clears, the short is on the half further from the source. Continue "halfing" until you narrow it down. There is also special test equipment that will alow a user to trace along until the short is sensed.
A motor in a circuit is classed as the circuit's load.
An open circuit or a short-circuit (if that circuit is complete).
The bulb is the load of the circuit, without it you have a short circuit.
No. No load and short circuit is not similar. No load can be 1) Either open circuit i.e. Only Potential is available and load is not connected 2) Load (i.e. motor etc ) is connected but not working with full load or full capacity. In this case the current will flow through the circuit depending on the load. It means No load condition is a condition where no current or a small ( relative / comparative term) current is flowing through the circuit. In Short circuit the load side resistance/ impedance become so less that very high amount of current is passing through circuit.( The protection is therefor required for any circuit) No load and and short circuit is not similar.

open circuit load2. short circuit load 3. a purely reactive load.
It creates an extra load to the circuit if placed parallel to other circuits. this load approaches the equivalent of a short circuit as the resistance value placed there reduces.
-circuit damage -overheating -fire or explosion causes a short circuit.

Yes the generator engine will start and keep running. The generator has to start before the short circuit is sensed. What happens to the generator section on a short circuit condition is that the generator breaker will trip and disconnect the short circuit on the load. <<>> genarator will not start because of short circuit
A short circuit which offers very low, practically zero, fault resistance is called "dead short circuit". further more it bypasses the entire load current through itself.
In that case, the circuit is shorted, or short-circuited.
By performing no load and short circuit tests. These are outlined in ANSII and IEEE literature.
