It depends if you have a plan or not. If you have a plan where you pay a set amount monthly, then, most of the time, comes with unlimited texting. If not, then it costs money. For example, I don't have a plan, and it costs me 10 cents a text. If you plan on texting a lot, then I suggest getting a plan, but if you're like me and don't text a lot, then just paying per text is a much cheaper way to go. Plans can cost anywhere from $10 to $99-the more expensive, the more benefits you're likely to get.
none, i text takes up a text message slot on your monthly allowance
No. You can not open or send a text without using minutes, but you CAN receive them.
No
yes
No, you can't text without minutes because your phone is not on but it depends on what kind of phone it is.
Yes, it does use your minutes to open a text message andsend one.
The only way you can text and not use up minutes is if you get an unlimited texting plan from your service provider. Otherwise, texting will use up your minutes.
I would say 3 to 7 minutes. If they don't text back after 10 minutes then they probably don't have their phone with them.

Ofcoures You Can!
I used the textfree with voice app which was recommended to me by a friend and you can call and text on that. You have to get minutes. You can buy minutes or get some by buying apps that are listed. It is a good app I recommend it.
The total work done in 10 minutes is ( 200 , \text{N} \times 2, \text{blocks per minute} \times 10, \text{minutes} = 4000 , \text{N} \times \text{blocks} = 4000 \text{ J}).
