The more experienced bulls will. And usually yes, though sometimes if there's more than one bull around...
Male cows don't exist. There are only cows and bulls, no female cows, male cows, male bulls, female bulls. With that said, only cows (which are, by definition, mature female bovines that have given birth to at least one calf) are ones that have cervixes, bulls do not. Bulls have their major reproductive organs close to or mostly outside their body, cows have theirs inside.
Typically a ranch's breeding period occurs only once a year. However, some ranches opt to have two breeding seasons a year, with a different herd of cows per breeding season, but using the same bulls for each breeding period. A typical cow should only be bred once to be settled, but if there are more than one bull in the herd at the time, she can be ridden more than once. Bulls, on the other hand, are the more sexually active of the cowherd, and will be very active breeding anywhere from 25 to 50 females in a breeding season.
Yes, of course! Cows and bulls are not separate species, they are names of different sexes within the species Bos primigenius taurus or indicus, and can indeed mate with each other, provided the cow is ready to do so. A bull will only mate with a cow when the cow is in heat or estrus, and not during any other time. Bulls are mature male intact bovines, and cows are mature female bovines.
It depends on the bull. Some may be able to breed up to 5 cows per day, others maybe only 1 or 2. It all depends on how receptive cows are and whether they're in standing heat at the time. A lot of breeding occurs at night, so you may see the bull breeding only a couple cows during the day.
Only once is necessary to get her settled. However, during a heat period, one cow can be bred to multiple bulls (if there are that many) more than once during her heat period.

Yes. Bulls are intact male bovines used to breed cows and heifers. Bulls are not female, nor ever will be.

Bulls are males , they doNOT have babies, only cows have babies , theya re called calves.
Angus bulls are first opportunity breeders - when a cow is in heat and receptive, the bull will mate.

Cows don't make sperm, bulls do. Sperm, once in the cow, will only survive for around 24 to 72 hours.
Usually, for every bull there are 25 to 30 cows. I can only answer that in ratios, not percentages.
Not necessarily. It means cattle in a collective term, not cows as in only cows with calves, or dry cows or pregnant cows or bulls or steers or heifers or whatever. When a cattleman says that he has 50 head of cattle, he means cows, bulls, steers, heifers and calves, not just the cows themselves.

Cows are cattle, as they are females only, while bulls are male cattle. Therefore, you cannot say for certain which is larger as one is a grouping, the other a specific gender of the species. Bulls are usually larger than cows, especially if referring to cows and bulls of the same breed, and not between breeds.
Only cows and older and/or pregnant heifers are capable of developing udders; steers, bulls and calves are not.
