50cc scooters are restricted to around 30mph here in the UK. They can be de-reg'd up by a few mph but you'll notgenerally get much more out of them. Weight and stuff are also factors.
cc's (cubic centimeters) are a measurement of power, not speed and 50cc scooters are considered to be entry-level in terms of power. More cc's equal more power and more power usually equates to more speed. Generally speaking, a 50cc scooter will have a top speed of 35-40 miles per hour.
You need a drivers license for scooter 50cc and below. You need a motorcycle endorsement for above 50cc.

According to the guys at Motorsport Scooters in San Diego, any bike that requires an M1 license to drive can be used for the M1 skills test. This includes scooters. I don't know if that includes 50cc, but the guy said that he knows several people who have taken the skills test on 50cc scooters. So the answer appears to be yes, you can. When I called the DMV the lady said 350cc or larger which is definitely not true.
It sort of depends. Mainly, if it's a 50cc engine, the answer is no, because they are unable to go fast enough to be safe in highway traffic. Also, since 50cc scooter (and mopeds) are typically limited by law to a maximum of 30mph (but can usually go somewhat faster), they are not allowed on anything but secondary streets.Most states require any vehicle to be able to go whatever the posted speed limit is. If the speed limit is faster than 35MPH (the maximum speed for most 50cc scooters), they are illegal on the highway.Some states are more specific: at the entrances to Interstates (and some other highways), there are signs at on-ramps to the highways listing a number of things not permitted on the highway, one of which is "Scooters less then 10hp".Scooters with engine sizes of 150cc or greater, of course, typically have cruising speeds of 50mph or greater, and therefore would be allowed on highways.Read more: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Are motor scooters allowed on highways#ixzz2T883LwnA
If it does have a battery (some scooters don't) it will probably be under the seat.
Depends on which state you live in. Some require a valid drivers license while others offer a "moped only" license. However, in most states, you do not need a motorcycle endorsement to ride scooters that are under 50cc (note for those no in the know: most 50cc scooters are actually under 50cc). You'll need to check with your states DMV or Dept of Revenue.

If you are referring to an electric moped, the answer would be yes. As long as the moped doesn't exceed 50cc, you will not be required to have a motorcycle license. For anything over 50cc, a motorcycle license will be needed. If you are referring to the type of electric scooters which you stand up on, such as those sold for children or an electric scooter such as a power wheelchair, the answer is no.
