Question 4

why does second-hand smoke cause health problems?

Accepted Answer

It's a Myth: I am not an advocate of smoking and there are lot's of reason to quit smoking but "Second Hand Smoke" is not one of them.

It's logical to conclude but not proven in any study.

2nd hand smoke: Do what you can to demand (not the best word) that you are entitled to a smoke-free environment. I know this can be extremely difficult.

It depends: Looking young is a subjective concept and depends on multiple factors, genetics, sun damage, chronic illnesses,  sleep deprivation and of course as you mention, cigarette smoke exposure, ect. It's unlikely that there are any studies to quantitate how faster you age with tobacco exposure but what you can do now is trying to live healthy and avoid exposure to tobacco smoke as much as you can.
