What is the proper overhang for a stair tread over the riser?
No more than 1-1/4 inch.
How many inches does the Stair tread depth typically stick out more than the run?
there are no set inches .... stairs are cut to a RATIO of the amount of space you need to climb [ say to the second floor of a house or to the top of a deck ] the steeper you make the stairs the higher this ratio will be. 10 inches of tread - and 8 inches of rise - is a common ballpark figure ... you cannot just decide i want my steps to be ______ height. you much use math and figure out how many steps can be divided equally into the total height. local building codes sometimes set a minimum and maximum height to the individual risers. making steps with one odd sized riser [ say shorter or higher than all the rest of the stairs so that it comes out correctly- and usually on the bottom step ] is a HUGE no-no as well. things too look up on the web are "framing square" and "stair stringer"
If stair tread is 7 inches and run is 11 inches will there be a 1 inch overhang?
A "tread" and a "run" are the same thing. Your question negates itself. However, if what you meant was an 11" riser and a 7" tread, then what you are describing is a ladder, as it would have an angle greater than 50 degrees. Ideally, you should reverse the dimensions, in which case then, yes, a 1" overhang is appropriate.
If you are measuring a rise for a 10ft stair what would it be?
The current standard for stairs in the US is a maximum of 7" per riser.10' is 120", divided by 7" is just over 17,but since the maximum allowable is 7" you're going to have to have 18 risers at 6 2/3"Don't panic, your framing square has one leg divided into 12ths,8/12 = 2/3

The stair tread depth is typically- more than the run so that it sticks out nose?
Nosing is not taken into account when calculating initial stair set-out, but added later. The rise of a residential stair in the US is 8" and the run is 10" with a nose of 1". This means that the tread depth is 10", the height from stair to stair is 8" and the tread sticks out 1" over the the tread below. It is still 10" from front to back. A commercial stair is 7" rise, 11" run, 1" nose.
