Why is your right front brake grinding weeks after being replaced?

It sounds to me that either the brake pad has shifted and isn't seated properly in the caliper OR the bolts that attach the caliper may have been installed incorrectly and are rubbing against the dick rotor. One more thing, the backing plate (thin piece of metal that blocks and protects the inside of the rotor may be bent and rubbing on rotor.

Why does the front right brake wear out faster?

The right front brake probably has a bad caliper. The calipers hold and move the brake pads . If the right caliper has a stuck piston , the pressure will not be the same as the left side. And, the piston on the caliper may not be returning to it's correct position causing pressure to stay on the pad . You can verify that by driving the car and compare the temperature of the right wheel to the left wheel. If the right is considerably hotter, there is a problem with the caliper. BE CAREFUL....BRAKES GET HOT!!!!!

Will the car pull to the right when braking if the left front caliper is binding in its bore?

Generally, yes. The binding caliper causes the pads to rub against the rotor heating the pads and rotor up. Hot pads and rotor provide less braking under equal pressure (when braking) so the right brake works better. The car will pull toward the better brake.
