They don't. A tsunami is an ocean wave. For a tsunami to occur, it needs a huge fetch (distance) to run. To date, the only method of creating one is major shifts in the earth, particularly around faults.

No. A pool is much too small and shallow for a tsunami to form.

No. There would be insufficient water for this kind of event to occur in a pond or average-sized river.

No, lakes are too shallow for a tsunami to occur in. And, tsunamis only occur in the ocean.

Potentially, yes. Tsunamis in lakes can be triggered by landslides.

What will happen if a tsunami hits a whirlpool?

If a tsunami hits a whirlpool, nothing noticeable will happen. If you have ever gone into a pool and circles it multiple times, it will make a whirlpool. Okay, so start making waves in a single direction. The waves will slow down the whirlpool, due to the friction on your "tsunami" water. So, just picture that on a much, much larger scale!
