In answer to your first question, the Aircraft Flight Manual will have a Performance section which will have charts providing answers to all those questions. Any established Airline will also have a specific set of charts for the destinations they operate which greatly simplifies the calculations of MTOW/RTOW for the specific field length/obstacle clearance combination. So you start with the distances (which are known) and work out the weight, for a given set of conditions.

Hope this helps.
