Can a monster attack right after you switch?
If you switch it from attack position to defence position you can't because no monster can attack from defence position except from "Total defence shogun". But if you switch it from defence position to attack position then you can attack
Can you change your monster's position into face-down defense?
The monster is flipped into face-up defense position and any battle damage that occurs is calculated. Afterwards the monster that was attacked remains on the field and is not sent to the Graveyard.Examples of monsters that cannot be destroyed in battle are Spirit Reaper and Marshmallon.If a monster attacks with an effect that enables it to deal damage equal to the difference in its ATK and the defending monster's DEF (like Twin-Sword Marauder or a monster equipped with Big Bang Shot), the damage is calculated but the monster is still not destroyed in battle.
Can you attack with a monster and then put it in defence?
Yes, if you control a monster in defense mode and it is changed to attack mode during the Battle Phase by a card effect, it can attack. The "Zero Gravity" Trap card is an example of a card that can switch your monsters' battle position during the Battle Phase. But if the monster already attacked that turn, was switched to defense mode, then changed to attack mode again by an effect, it cannot attack again on that same turn.
Can you summon a card in attack mode then switch to face down defense mode?
Generally no, a card cannot be manually switched to face-down Defense Position after it is Summoned on the field in face-up Attack Position. There are some cards that allow you to switch it into face-down Defense Position as an EFFECT. For example: Golem Sentry.Golem SentryEARTH/Rock/Lv 4/EffectATK: 800DEF: 1800You can flip this card into face-down Defense Position once per turn. When this card is Flip Summoned successfully, return 1 monster on your opponent''s side of the field to the owner''s hand.With cards such as Golem Sentry, you can Normal Summon it and activate its effect, flipping it face-down in Defense Position, in the same turn.
Can you only use 'Trap Hole' on attack position monsters?
Indeed you can. A Tribute Summon is considered a type of Normal Summon.with the right use, it can destroy 3 monsters (2 that is needed to sacrifice or tribute and 1 for the tribute summoned monster) pretty sweet ^^ and pretty annoying too if you're on the other end. that's why it's always a must to add 3 trap holes on a deck.

Can you change a monster from attack position to defense position after it has attacked?
Not manually, no. A monster that has declared an attack that turn, may not switch into defence mode. But it can be switched by the effect of other cards, including their own, in the case of Goblin Attack Force.
In Yu-Gi-Oh can you turn a card from defense to attack position or attack to defense position?
Yes. Once per turn, a monster may switch from face-up attack mode to face-up defence mode, or vice-versa, as long as the monster was not summoned that turn, and had not declared an attack. If the monster is face-down, then turning it face up into attack mode is a Flip Summon, which can't be done on the turn the monster was Set from hand.

How does a face-down Attack position monster work?
A monster in face-down Attack position is unable to declare attacks. It can be flipped or Flip Summoned, both actions will switch it into face-up Attack position. It can also have its battle position change by the controlling player, switching it from face-down Attack position to face-down Defence position.

You can switch it into attack mode, sure. But as long as it remains face-up on the field, it is affected by a condition applied by Silent Doom, saying that monster cannot attack.

No it does not. Brain control is used to either switch its position on the controller of brain control's side of the field or tribute this controlled monster or attack with.
Yu-Gi-Oh card game ATK vs DEF?
Well, a lack of specifics prompts me to tell everything. Each monster has a specific amount of ATK (Attack Points) and DEF (Defense Points), depicted at the bottom of the card. Generally, the points will be multiples of 100, though there are several that end in 50 and a few with other numbers, but those were only released in the early stages of the game; aside from their re-releases, there haven't been any since. Also, no card released has had any basic ATK or DEF below 0 or above 5000.A monster with ATK and DEF of less than 1000 is considered weak; between 1000 and 2000 is average; between 2000 and 3000 is powerful; between 3000 and 4000 is exceptionally powerful; anything higher...well, let's just say you don't want to mess with anything like that if you're not an experienced Duelist, and usually not even then.Generally, monsters with 0 ATK have a strong DEF and/or an effect that can compensate, and likewise, monsters with 0 DEF will have a strong ATK and/or an effect. And for monsters that have 0 ATK and DEF, they ALWAYS have a special effect to help them out. Well, okay, not always, but at last count there were only three exceptions, and their usefulness is revealed when combined with certain cards that they're meant for.Now, in terms of gameplay; first, bear in mind that the following descriptions are the basic rules of the game, but there is at least one exception to almost everything mentioned here by means of a Spell, Trap, or Effect Monster card.Monsters can be Normal Summoned in face-up Attack Position or Set in face-down Defense Position. Monsters can change their positions once per turn. Face-down Defense Position monsters are flipped face-up when they switch to Attack Position. Face-up monsters cannot be flipped face-down. Monsters can only attack if they're in Attack Position. Monsters cannot change into Defense Position in the same turn that they attack or the same turn they are Summoned. Monsters in Attack Position are placed vertically, right-side up in the perspective of the card's controller. Monsters in Defense Position are placed horizontally.When a monster attacks another monster in Attack Position, one of three things happens:1. If the attacking monster has greater ATK than the monster it attacks, the attacked monster is destroyed and the controller of that monster loses Life Points equal to the difference between the two monsters' ATK.2. If the attacking monster has less ATK than the monster it attacks, the attacking monster is destroyed and the controller of that monster loses Life Points equal to the difference between the two monsters' ATK.3. If the attacking monster has equal ATK to the monster it attacks, both monsters are destroyed and neither player loses Life Points.When a monster attacks a monster in Defense Position, one of three things happens:1. If the attacking monster has greater ATK than the DEF of the monster it attacks, the attacked monster is destroyed and the controller of that monster loses no Life Points.2. If the attacking monster has less ATK than the DEF of the monster it attacks, neither monster is destroyed and the controller of the attacking monster loses Life Points equal to the difference between the attacking monster's ATK and the attacked monster's DEF.3. If the attacking monster has equal ATK to the DEF of the monster it attacks, neither monster is destroyed and neither player loses Life Points.One last note: if a monster attacks a face-down Defense Position monster, it is flipped face-up, but stays in Defense Position.And that is everything you need to know about ATK and DEF.
