That is 50,000 BTU per hour.
Because all the electrical energy supplied to the heater is emitted as heat. There is no other way for the energy to escape.
It will not work. It will work, but you will only receive 25% of the rated output of the tank. A 3000 watt heater will only product 750 watts at 110 volts.
The electric heater will have power rated in Watts. The Amps it will draw depends on the voltage system you are using. Can be calculated by formula I (Amps) = P / V In the USA with 110V system a 2400W heater will draw 2400 Watts / 110 Volts = 21.8 Amps In Australia with a 230 V system a 2400W heater will draw 2400 Watts / 230 Volts = 10.4 Amps
Electricity is sold to consumers thru meters that record kilowatt hours: 1000 watts turned on for 1 hour= 1kwh or kilowatt hour. If cost for 1 kwh = $0.10, then 1500 watts for 1 hour would cost 15 cents. Varies by location of the country. Check your utility bill for exact cost per kwh.

A bit north of 50,000btu/hr
500kw
A reverse cycle A/C must mean a heat pump. Every heat pump has a C.O.P. or coefficient of performance. They are rated at 17 and 47 degrees outside. A new heat pump should be around 3.3 at 47 degrees and 2.1 at 17 degrees. This means even at 17 degrees outside, it will produce 2.1 btu per kilowatt to 1 btu per kilowatt of an electric strip heater. And 3.3 to 1 at 47 degrees. Depending on where you live though, the electric heater may be needed to supplement the capacity of the heat pump.

Kilowatt-hours is kilowatt-hours, regardless of AC or DC. However, UPS's are rated in kilowatts, not kilowatt-hours. If you are talking about battery capacity versus output power, its still different, but in that case you need to consider the efficiency of the UPS. You also need to consider run-time limitations on the UPS, if there happen to be any.
The top rated water heater would depend on the type required. Gas powered, Electric powered, on-demand, solar, tankless...there are many options these days.

Yes if it is run at a lower votage than it is designed for.

Some of the best rated brands of electric stove heaters include the Dimplex Electric Flame stove, the Merlin Electric Heater Fireplace and the Bionare fireplace Heater stove.
