If you were walking on the crosswalk and if you were not at fault, the driver should be responsible for covering the cost of damages... assuming you were not doing anything wrong like not walking on the crosswalk, or walking on the crosswalk when it says not to...
Really it depends on injuries sustained.
It depends. Could be the driver if they sped through a stop sign through a crosswarlk. Could be the pedestrian if they were jaywalking without looking both ways. That's why we have courts and trials - to help decide who was at fault.

Any amount you want. Doesn't mean you will get it.
The injuries incurred from being hit by a car depend on the speed the car is moving and the car's size. Typically, being struck by a car will break bones at the least, and death is not uncommon, especially when a car is moving quickly.
It was your car so your insurance will have to pay. Never loan a car out to someone who is not on your insurance policy.
If you didn't put in a claim (not wise), and the company has absolutely no knowledge of the accident then 'no' how could it?
If you did not have an active policy when you hit the person then you are not covered. The pedestrian can sue you for personal injury and it will come out of your pocket.
The average settlement for a pedestrian hit by a car while jogging can vary widely depending on several factors, including the severity of injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and liability. Typically, settlements can range from tens of thousands to several million dollars, with many cases averaging between $100,000 and $500,000. Factors like the jurisdiction and the circumstances of the accident also play a significant role in determining the final settlement amount.
Yes, you can get into trouble for almost hitting a pedestrian who jumped out of the way and hit your car with his walking stick when he did not get it out of the way. Pedestrians alwayshave the right of way. You failed to yield right of way. You get a ticket. You could face a lawsuit because you scared a pedestrian. Now, watch where you are going.
A car travelling at 40mph will have a lot more momentum than one travelling at 30mph, so there would be more force for it to hit the pedestrian with; it will also take much longer to come to a halt.
