a arch bridge can hold over 6,000 pounds
normally a suspension bridge can hold up to 8,000lbs at once, but if the bridge is very long it might hold less because the longer the bridge to weaker it is. if the bridge is short it can hold up to 10,000lbs at once because it is short and can hol more wieght. even if your bridge has extra layers on it to support it more it is still weaker then a short bridge.
Not so. I'm afraid the first answer is not at all helpful or even very meaningful. The capacity of any bridge depends on what load it is designed to take at maximum traffic, the required length, wind-loading and factor of safety.
10,000lbs is not very much at all. It's less than 5 tons, or about 3 cars. Try thinking of, say, the Golden Gate Bridge if you are in the USA, or the Humber Bridge if in the UK, at rush hour!
The answer to this question depends upon a wide variety of factors, such as the dead load, the live load, and the dynamic load. San Francisco's world-famous Golden Gate Bridge is now only the twelfth-longest completed suspension bridge in the world, and second-longest in the US. It carries six lanes of vehicular traffic, pedestrians, and bicycles.
Depends what bridge.

To hold the arch in place
An arch bridge uses compression to hold itself together
an arch bridge weakness is not having enough streanth to hold up the middle

No
if you build an arch bridge it can hold more weight then anyother type of toothpick bridge and can hold about 20lbs (if made well) another good type of bridge is the truss bridge it is just as strong as the arch bridge but it has diffrent structures.
is the ponte vecchio bridge is an arch bridge
The answer will depend on its design and the material that it is built from.
The brooklyn bridge is not a arch bridge
it is a hybrid between an arch bridge and truss bridge. so it is classified as an arch and truss
Arch Bridges are: 1. Masonry arch bridges 2. trussed arch bridges. Le viaduc de Garabit in Cantal France is a famous arch bridge. The Sydney Harbour bridge is a trussed arch bridge Tacoma Bridge.
