Difference in term of cost among volatile non volatile and stable?

Volatile storage: if storage media loses data while power goes off, it is termed as volatile storage media for example RAM. It is the fastest among the three in terms of data access time.

Non-volatile storage: If storage media retains data even while power goes off, it is termed as non-volatile storage media. For example: hard disk. It is faster than stable storage but slower as compared to volatile storage.

Stable Storage:Information that is residing in stable storage is certainly not lost (theoretically). A natural catastrophe may result in a loss if not the probability of data loss is negligible. For example by using multiple hard disks as in the case of RAID technology. This is the slowest of all storage media mentioned above.

What causes a memory leak?

Once you use RAM can you get it back?

When you have a program or a document open, you are using RAM, or "working memory." Putting a large amount of data on a clipboard (copy/paste) will also decrease your available memory. Closing the programs, clearing the copy/paste will restore your RAM in most cases. Some programs do not release all of the memory, so you may have to reboot your computer to reclaim the RAM.

When you copied some files from one drive in your computer where will be the files stored until you paste them in another drive?

If you copied the files, then they will be in both places.
