An ATM card uses a PIN based authentication mechanism. PIN stands for Personal Identification Number. It is a 4 - 6 digit number that is specific to each card and is known (supposed to be) only to the bank account/ATM card holder. The customer first inserts the ATM card into the card slot of the machine and then keys in the PIN number digits. If the PIN entered matches the number in the bank records, the ATM will let the customer to proceed with his banking transactions.

You cannot. An ATM card number and the corresponding bank account number are seldom the same. The only way to find it is to use the correct PIN number for that ATM card and then try to get a mini statement advice from the ATM machine. The bank statement will contain the account number linked to this ATM card.
It depends on the type of card. if it's solely for use with a specific bank - you must only use their ATM's. If it's a Visa card - you can use it in any Visa-enabled ATM. Either way, the first time you use it - you will be prompted to change your PIN.

It is a debit card made more specifically for ATM use. In which a PIN is always required and you can not use it as credit. So merchants that only allow credit transaction can not accept ATM cards.
It is required for authentication purposes. The system does not have any means of finding out if the person using the ATM card is the actual customer. So, the banks issue a PIN number to the customer and ask him/her to keep it safely and not share with anyone else. This lets the bank assume that anyone who knows the correct PIN number for an ATM card is a valid customer and lets them use the ATM machine. So, it is our responsibility to keep our PIN numbers safe.
Anyone who has a debit or credit card !
Yes, as long as you have a password to use with it.
