When you play the flute does the air blowing across the mouthpiece vibrate to make a sound?
Although, you do blow across the mouthpiece to make a sound on the flute the air either travels across and escapes or travels through the instrument. The air stream does not split as might be expected. The air stream vibrates the lip plate and head tube. The rest of the flute acts as a resonator creating waves of a certain lenghth (and therefore a certain pitch) depending on with keys, if any, are depressed.
I added a related link in case you need more info.
Edit: The air spins around the tube after hitting the back wall. The number of keys you press down determines how far that air has to travel down the tube of the flute. It requires more air than most instruments because half of the air doesn't go into the flute.

What is the difference between a flute and a oboe?
The flute is longer than a oboe and an oboe has a double reed and a flute does not have a reed. The flute has a cylindrical bore while the oboe has a conical bore. The fingerings are definitely comparable, but not the same. The oboe has a range from Bb below the treble clef to Ab twice above the treble clef, while the flute has a huge range from C below the treble clef to D twice above the treble clef.
A flute can play only one note at a time, so a single flute cannot play a chord. A C2 chord however is C, D, and G, so three flutes playing at the same time can play a C2 if one flute plays each of those notes.

The oboe is known as a double reeded instrument but this is a red herring as the SINGLE reed is made from one piece of cane folded over.

This is different from a single reeded instrument like a clarinet where the reeed vibrates against the mouthpiece.

What year was the piccolo invented or made popular?
In the Middle Ages military musicians played a simple transverse flute with six finger-holes alongside the drum. These two instruments were characteristic of foot soldiers.
During the 16th century many instruments were further adapted in imitation of the human voice and came to form instrument families consisting of models in various registers. The flute family also included instruments of every register, from the treble recorder (flauto piccolo) to the bass flute (flautone).
The piccolo, and the concert flute, both evolved from the military transverse flute of the Middle Ages. When in the mid 17th century the art of flute-making underwent a process of rapid innovation, the technical improvements made to the flute were passed on one by one to its smaller sister, the piccolo traverso. In the early 18th century the piccolo began to appear with one to four keys, and more were added as the century progressed. In the years that followed the piccolo�s development mirrored that of the flute.
In 1832 the Munich flutist Theobald Boehm invented a revolutionary mechanism for the flute and by the middle of the 19th century it had already found its way onto the piccolo. Nevertheless, piccolos with older key mechanisms remained in use into the 20th century.
Piccolos were made in the tunings C, Db and Eb (fundamentals C5, Db5 and Eb5 - the latter tuning was favored particularly in military circles). The tubing was made first of wood, later of metal and was slightly conical.
In the first third of the 18th century parts for �flauto piccolo� and �flautino� began to appear in scores, although it cannot be said with any certainty today whether they were intended for the piccolo with one key or for a high recorder or flageolet. This applies to Georg Friedrich Handel�s opera "Rinaldo" (1711) and "Water Music" (1715), and Antonio Vivaldi�s three Concerti per flautino among others. Nowadays these parts are played by the piccolo.
Ludwig van Beethoven was one of the first composers to use the piccolo in his works to imitate sounds of nature, e.g. the whistling of a stormy wind in the fourth movement of his 6th Symphony ("Pastoral Symphony", 1808). In his "Rigoletto" (1851) Giuseppe Verdi first used a piccolo to symbolize lightning. In addition, the piccolo was used for special effects, by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in "The Magic Flute" (1791), for example, for a humorous portrayal of eunuchs. In many works the piercing and shrill fortissimo of the piccolo is used to heighten terror in frightening scenes.
Composers of the Romantic period, particularly Richard Strauss and Gustav Mahler, integrated the piccolo completely into the orchestra�s woodwind section. Since then it has been used extensively to add color and shading to the sound of the orchestra and occasionally even as a solo instrument.

How are different notes played on a flute?
i have been playing the flute for 4 years now and i know that it is deffinatly impossible to play two notes on the flute at once.
EDIT:
Yes you can, person who posted above me. I apologize that I don't know how to do it. I have heard it done by professional flute players in pieces where they may hold out a note and play a melody above it or something, for example. It is a very cool, but very advanced trick. Just thought I'd point out that IT IS indeed possible, and I'm sorry I can't offer any further information...
