A320 Elevators

From DSC-27-10-20 Elevator Actuation

Damping : The jack follows surface movement.
Does this mean that elevator deflection is reduced? How is different from the active mode.

If neither jack is being controlled hydraulically, both are automatically switched to damping mode.
With loss of HYD how are these jacks being controlled?

If neither jack is being controlled electrically, both are automatically switched to the centering mode.
How are these jacks positioned if there is loss of electrical power?

Some maneuvers cause the second jack to become active.
Which Manoeuvres are these.
