How many symbols are there on a standard drum kit?
It depends on what kind of "standard" kit you're talking about. Every drum company has their own idea of a 'standard' drum kit. So, I'm just going to assume you are talking about a basic beginners drum kit. So, to get to your question, a beginners drum kit usually has a hi-hat, which is two cymbals put together, one on top of the other. The standard hi-hat size is about 13 to 14 inches. Next, there is the Ride. The standard size for a ride is about 20 inches, however, I've seen rides range anywhere form 18 inches to 26 inches. And finally, there is the Crash. Standard Crash sizes are usually about 16 inches, however, I have seen crashes range anywhere form 14 inches to 20 inches. So, to answer your question in short, there are usually 4 cymbals in a beginner's drum kit (if you are counting the hi-hat as 2)
Hope that helps!

Allies did not use drums in battle during World War 2. They did however use horns and drums during burial ceremonies and political ceremonies or for other military purposes. I could not find any references for the use of the drum by the axis powers however the Chinese and the Japanese did use cymbals for signals and alarms. The allies did use horns, whistles and clickers during operations for signals and identification purposes.
An interesting note about drums used in World War 2: The troops and sailors would used bongo drums, empty oil drums and anything else to create a beat when they entertained themselves. Some of the men had guitars and other wind instruments for personal entertainment. They would use drums and other instruments to entertain children of the Pacific Islands or in the European nations. They would even form choirs, duets, quartets, etc. to sing for officers and themselves or people they encountered. Some would play pianos in pubs and drum away on tables to entertain each other and the Brits or Scots, etc.
There are some You Tube videos of the World War 2 service men and women using the empty oil drums turned over or other things to beat on. There are some great acapella videos of them too.

What would a drummer to make the sound of a drum give a note of lower pitch?
It depends largely on how it is tuned. A large drum will generally produce a lower sound, but this is because they are usually tuned to produce that pitch because smaller drum heads do not have enough surface area to create that low a pitch without becoming floppy. Likewise, a large drum head such as a floor tom can produce a higher pitch, but not as high as a very small drum like a piccolo snare.
Why are there so many drum types?
It all depends on how a drum is made, and what it is made of. For example, a small steel drum is going to be loud and high pitched, while a large drum made of a soft wood such as birch is going to be low pitched and will give off less volume.

How many cymbals do you need for a drum set?
Not if you're ordering a brand new set from the manufacturer. The drums and the cymbals are made by 2 separate companies. Maybe if you went on eBay or a similar auction site there would be a used set for sale that came with cymbals. Or if you were buying them from a music store you could order the cymbals at the same time as the set. But they still didn't come with the drums.
