A good is rival if the fact that one person consumes a unit of it automatically means that no one can consume that unit at the same time, without incurring the cost of producing more. On the other hand, with a non-rival good the fact that one consumes a unit of the good means that it is automatically available for others to consume, without additional production cost.
A good is excludable if a unit of it exists, but consumers who want to use it can be prevented from doing so. It is non-excludable if one cannot be prevented from using it.
A non-rival, non-excludable good is called a public good.
A good is durable if the fact that it can be used now means that it can be used again for some time into the future.
Information is non-rival, physically non-excludable, and durable. Intellectual property is a legal device to make information excludable.
Your answers to 3, 4, and 5 should be different goods.
