Yes, someone can use "Trap Hole" if it's attack is determined to be 1000 or greater when Normal Summoned.
For example, let's say I Normal Summon "The Calculator". If it is the only monster on my field it's attack is immediately determined to be 600. If I already had a 4 star monster then summoned "The Calculator", it's attack is immediately determined to be 1200 and "Trap Hole" can be activated to destroy it.
A Fusion Summon, or the Summoning of any Monster (Synchro or Fusion) from the Fusion Deck (Extra Deck) is a special summon and so Trap Hole will not work on it.
Normal summon, no. Special summon, yes.The reason is, when Obelisk is normal summoned, no spells, traps or monster effects can be activated. That means it prevents anything being activated in the 'summon response' window, which is where you'd normally use cards like Trap Hole, Bottomless Trap Hole, Torrential Tribute, etc.
If a monster is set you cannot activate it. "Torrential Tribute" can only activate when any player performs a flip summon, normal summon, Ritual summon, Fusion summon or Special summon, but a set is different from a summon so you cannot activate "Torrential Tribute". The same applies to other cards that activate when a monster is summoned (like "Bottomless Trap Hole" and "Solemn Judgment").
Bottomless Trap Hole can be used against a Synchro Summoned monster with appropriate attack, but it's not accurate to say it 'stops' the summon. In game terms, the summon is completed successfully, and cards like Bottomless Trap Hole will be used in response to that successful summon. It means though that Synchro Monsters like Brionac may have already used their effects due to player Priority - if you want to avoid even that happening, you need to negate the summon instead, with a summon negation card.
You cannot activate Trap Hole to negate the tribute summon of Jinzo in Yu-Gi-Oh. No effect of Trap Hole can be activated because Jinzo negates traps in the game. However, your only option to totally prevent Jinzo from negating trap card effects is to negate his summon. To negate a monster's summon also prevents any of its effects on the field from applying. Cards like Solemn Warning not only negate the summoning of a monster but also prevent its effects on the field from ever applying and also destroys the monster.
Torrential Tribute and Bottomless Trap Hole can only be used in response to a monster's summon. Attacking a monster does not summon it (note that if the monster is face down, this is a Flip and not a Flip Summon).
A Fusion Summon is considered a special summon, so anything that can respond to a special summon (such as Bottomless Trap Hole) can be used against it.
Tribute Summons are a form of Normal Summon. Anything that affects or refers to a Normal Summon, will do so for a Tribute Summon too. So yes, a Trap Hole can be used against a Tribute Summoned monster with appropriate ATK.
No, as a tribute summon is one continuous step.
Synchro summoned is considered a special summon so Trap Hole won't have an effect on them. But try Bottomless Trap Hole or Torrential Tribute instead.

No, because Tribute Summon is treated as a Normal Summon. Monsters that require tribute for a special summon (Toon monsters, Destiny Hero Plasma) are still Special Summons, not Tribute Summons.
Nope, the Earthbound wouldn't be destroyed. Trap Hole's effect occurs when the monster is successfully summoned. By then, Hardened Armed Dragon's effect is in play. However, the summon could still be negated. (i.e Solemn Judgement)
