If you are somewhat overweight this is totally normal, especially since it's hot out now. Your body gets rid of water weight first so if you carry extra water you are going to sweat it out.

Answer mine please?

I don't know how long it will take. Everyone's different. You could try bring a sweat headband and a towel to dry yourself often. If you aren't sweating, you aren't trying. Ladies also like a sweating man ;).

Yes. If you're working really hard, you'll sweat a lot. Don't worry about what other people think. They should be there to work out, not to look at you.

Oh yeah, completely normal. I first noticed this when I made my move between dry climate to humid. All of a sudden my workouts involved sweat dripping on to the floor.

I hope you show etiquette and wipe off the machines when you're done with them. Take a few breaks to wash your face with cold water.
