There are both industrial and home owner cable pulling techniques. The former may involve heavy equipment and cable greasing and many people. Pulling cable on a small scale involves a snake and sometimes a pull cord. A snake is a coiled metal strip that you push through the conduit. When it comes out the other end or to a pull box you connect the wire and pull it back through the conduit. If more wire might be pulled later, also attach a pull cord so it will be left behind in the conduit for future use.

No, according to the electrical code the cable has to have a underground rating. That said many home owners do install indoor rated cable in PVC black water pipe and bury it for outdoor installations.

There has to be a pull box between every four quarter bends in a conduit run.

9 - Is this a test answer or do you just want to know for a project you're doing? Take a look at NEC chapter 9 - tables 4 and 5 (in the 2005 edition at least)

9-10, but the conduit may not exceed a certain length, or a certain voltage in order for you to "legally" do it. Many applications allow for conduit fill ratio's that exceed the standards of the NEC ( National Electrical Code) and most of them are short (less than 24") "chases" between control devices mounted in listed Junction boxes for that purpose. It is not advisable to fill a conduit more than the NEC allows for purposes of heat dissipation.
