It really depends on the breed of sheep. Columbias are around 275 pounds, but Shetlands are around 75 pounds. Check on your breed's website to see what your sheep should be.
Yes, they are. It's actually a common misconception, seeing as they have two distinct names. However, they are indeed the same breed. I hope this clears this up. Cheers, Dr. Semm
This answer is very dependent on first identifying what breed you are inquiring about. Adult male sheep can weigh anywhere from 100 to 600 pounds and better depending on the breed of the sheep.

All sheep are inherantly dumb but lovable creatures. Suffolks are a larger breed but no sheep breed in particular will "charge" a person, usually sheep in general prefer to go the other direction. The only sheep that charge people are hungry ones when they see you with a bucket of feed, or a ram (male sheep). Rams can be dangerous during rut and as suffolks are a larger breed its best to steer clear of the males while they are in rut.
Columbian Sheep is a breed of sheep. They are a larger framed white face sheep.
Farmers in South West England have a breed of sheep that loose their wool automatically in the spring, this breed is called the Exlana.

If you breed a sheep with another sheep, a baby sheet will spawn. So long as the two sheep are adults, when you enter them into love mode (done by giving them wheat) a baby sheep will be spawned.
