keep heat in copper is a good heat conductor.
If you are talking water heater, they are made of steel. If talking storage tanks, copper lasts much longer than steel. Will not rust.
There is no way short of cutting it off. Hot water tanks are not made to be opened.
Copper is used as hot water pipes because the copper will not corrode when the hot water goes through the pipes
Hot water holding systems have been used as far back as the Romans. They particularly liked building hot water baths, of a communal nature. I would suspect that as soon as the copper and bronze age occurred, a shaped bowl was used to heat water.

No, they are rigid.
Copper is used for the inner lining of hot water geysers because it is a good conductor of heat, which allows for efficient heat transfer to the water. Additionally, copper is resistant to corrosion, making it durable for prolonged exposure to hot water. This helps to prolong the lifespan of the geyser.
Yes, there is a website that lists used hot water tanks. You can get a list of them at www.energystar.gov/index.cfm?c=tax_credits.tx_index
the hot water temperature will not reduce due to atmosphere temperature.
"How much" as a question is quite vague. Some hot water heaters are comprised of copper only. So this now depends on the size of the hot water heater. Some hot water heaters have no copper whatsoever.
