Who did the peasants serve and why?
Anyone with more money than they had. Landowners, businessowners, Lords and Ladies .
Do nobles have power over anyone else?
Well lords had power over nights and nights had power over peasants. The lords and nights lived in manners. lords would tax nights and nights would tax peasants peasants would pay in money and crops. In the medieval times there was a system called The Feudal System the monarch (king) was at the top then the bishops and lords next was the nights and lower clergy and then at the bottom the peasants.
What tasks did the peasants do for the king?
Peasants payed rent to their lords, in the forms of labor, a share of the crop, or money. In exchange for this they got a place to live, land to farm, and protection.There is a link below to an article on serfdom, where more information can be found.the worked the land the kings and lords owned
What would happen to the land if most people die from the black death?
Large numbers of peasants were killed by the black death, making it impossible to do all the farm work. In some places, farm animals died because there were no one left to tend them. This is not simply a problem of raising food. What food was raised was sufficient for the population that remained. Instead, it was a problem of infrastructure support. There were jobs that had to be done that did not contribute to farming. Upkeep work on the manors had to be done by taking peasants off the fields, or abandoned. In many cases the lords of manors had died, and the new lords were not well equipped to keep things going. Lords competed for peasants. Those who had the money to tempt them, lured peasants away from the manors of lords who did not. And so many manors were abandoned altogether. The land on those manors was untended, and quickly reverted to woodland. Most of those manors that survived did recover. The populations on these manors grew to what they had been. But there were fewer of them. The changes in the economic condition of the peasants meant that the land on the manors was eventually managed differently. Landlords, as part of luring serfs onto their manors, gave them more freedom than they had previously had, and this eventually meant that, where there had been a day or two of labor due the lord every week, peasants paid rent in money and worked a day or two for the lord for pay. Communal farming was reorganized so the peasants had larger fields of their own, with communal only activities being done where it was difficult not to continue with them, such as common grazing of cattle and sheep. And so the layout and use of fields was also altered. There is a link below to the economic section of an article dealing with the consequences of the Black Death. There is a bit about this there.
Why did the cultivation of commercial crop lead to peasant revolts?
Cultivation of commercial crops made peasants more independent of their lords. They began to pay the lords in money, and this meant that they could sell their products over a wider area, or even work off the manor for the money they needed for rent. Even before the Black Death, serfdom was on the way out in some places, notably Scotland and England. The Black Death put sufficient value on agricultural workers to keep manors open that serfs began to have a nearly purely monetary relationship with their lords, leading to greater independence. Their independence meant they could leave the land they were on for better opportunities elsewhere. Once that was established, they could band together and sometimes felt they had no particular reason to put up with injustice.
How did the black death affect lords?
The lords were forced to raise the amount of money the peasants could earn as after the black death, there were hardly any left. Also, the lords were buried in better tombs if they were killed from the black death, hope this helps

How did black death weaken feudalism in Europe?
it did because it killed pretty much half of Europe's population. There were less commoners, so the remaining received much more money from their lords. The lords suffered greatly, because they had to either give up their crops or pay the high wages. The middle class weakened feudalism by rising in the feudal system with the money. They could become tenant farmers with all that money and become much wealthier.
