I'm pretty sure Angus just plugs right into his amp and doesn't use any pedals.
He uses overdrive on his marshall amps and has a sound tech to change any settings that need to be changed after each song.

I would assume that Angus Young Uses his trademark Gibson SG electric guitar on the track War Machine.
Angus has been using Ernie Ball strings for over 40 years. He uses Gauge 9-42's.
They can be run in tandem. One's ability to use them simultaneously would be dependent on their balance and coordination, as well as their weight and the ability of those two pedals to support their weight.

OK, a distortion pedal is an effect pedal mostly used by musicians to get a "meaner" sound. Where as fuzz pedals just make your sound "dirty"; these "distortion" pedals push your sound over the edge.There are some that give more of a "crunch" and other's that sound more ... "liquid".Sorry for all the poor descriptions. Some specific examples of the sounds produced by these pedals are:AC/DC guitarist Angus Young's trademarked sound is what most would call "crunch".The late ex-Pantera guitarist "Dimebag" Darrel had what most would call "liquid" distortion.Older distortion pedal achieved these effects by use of analog circuitry and manipulation of the signal generated by the guitar. Modern pedals generally use digital circuitry.

Both Eddie and John don't use distortion pedals they use Big Bite pedals they are boost overdrive pedals. You can find them here, www.bigbitefx.com or www.facebook.com/bigbitefx
Unfortunately no, for example Electro Harmonix pedals use special adapters and some pedals only operate on batteries. But it will power most 9V pedals.
Marshall. Look at AC/DC live music videos on youtube and look on the stage at the amps.
Airplanes do not have gas pedals. Instead they use a throttle lever which is hand operated. Some planes come with pedals that are used to operate the rudder or brakes.
Your overall guitar tone is made up from a number of factors. These factors include the guitar itself, the strings, the amp and the signal processing (effects). One of the easiest ways to get a sound close to a particular artist is to Google patches for your particular effects unit (if you have one). For example, I use a Korg AX300G effects processor. If I wanted a sound like Angus Young, I would Google 'AX300G Angus Young Patch'. Angus has his own signature series guitar which adds to his sound. I've added a link to a review on some quality guitar strings too.
