Here's my version to add to Colvert's.

I don't know, I have never measured one. What difference does it make?

How do I know if the pad is still usable even if the warning light came on?
Take off the RH wheels and have a look.

Can I find out if the front ones or rear ones are worn by shorting the small tip of the sensor that goes into the pad with a paper clip?
No.

Judging by your questions, your best course of action is to renew front and rear pads at the earliest opportunity.
