It depends on the motor. The motor determines the amperage. Should be written on the well pump itself.
The horsepower of the motor is needed to complete this answer.
about 3 or 4
53000Amps
That depends entirely upon the type of motor. A car starting motor may take a few hundred Amps for the short period.

You cannot increase voltage by adding amps.
To answer this question the voltage of the motor must be stated.
Depends on how big the motor is. A stronger motor will draw more amps then a weaker or less efficient motor. For example a wiper motor draws far less then a starter motor.
I have a single phase induction motor. It draws 8 amps on start up and climbs to 14-15 amps when I put a load on it. When I don't have a load it runs at 1 and climbs to 2-3 amps. It is normal operation for this motor to run at the lower number of amps with a load. But I don't know what is wrong.
Watts = Volts x Amps for an incandescant bulb. So Amps = 600/120.
The main breaker is not based on the HP of the motor it is based on the FLA of the motor. Many different motors have different characteristics and all of the different motors have different amperages Once you have the amperage of the motor the breaker is 250% times the FLA of the motor.
