Those include red lights on the port side and green lights on the other.
Depends on the size of the vessel. My tiny little 14 ft boat is only required to show a white light. The link at the bottom of this page will take you to a chart showing lights and visible ranges for different sizes.
What is the size of the vessel? Refer to "Navigation rules" for vessel specific answers.
The characteristics of navigation lights on a power driven vessel includes sidelights, sternlight, masthead light, and all-round white lights. Navigation lights must be displayed from sunset until sunrise as well as anytime visibility is restricted.
lights must be on during periods of restricted visibility
Port is red, starboard is green.A rhyme is "wine is red and there's little left in the bottle."

When a power-driven vessel is being overtaken by another power-driven vessel, the overtaken vessel is the stand-on vessel. This means the overtaken vessel should maintain its course and speed, while the overtaking vessel is required to take action to avoid a collision. It is the responsibility of the overtaking vessel to ensure safe passage and to maneuver appropriately.
This depends on the size of the vessel, what the vessels activity is, what the vessel is used for and how it is being used. Need more info.
Power-driven vessels must display specific navigation lights to indicate their presence and movement at night or in low visibility. Typically, they show a red light on the port side (left), a green light on the starboard side (right), and a white stern light at the rear. Additionally, a white masthead light is required, visible from ahead and at a distance. These lights help other vessels identify the type and direction of the power-driven vessel.
the power driven vessel needs to give-way for sailing ships.
