I'm asking the following:
1. when you are selected will you be expected to give an address of resident in the US? what of people that don't know anybody in the US?
2. if you are not in a country of your birth or citizenship, in another country for other purposes( studies etc). where will be your country where you will have your visa interview after being selected? in the country where you live today or in the country of your birth?
3. what documents will they ask for during the interview?
4. when you are successful for the interview and you are still a student in a university other than in Us what happens? what is expected of you? to immigrate immediately or you can go to the US and come back to complete your education?
5. please tell me about more details of this visa lottery after the application
thank you~! help out on this questions please

Yes you are expected to provide an address in the US where your green card can be forwarded. Also it will help your case to have somewhere to go in the US should you win.
2. if you are not in a country of your birth or citizenship, in another country for other purposes( studies etc). where will be your country where you will have your visa interview after being selected? in the country where you live today or in the country of your birth?
I believe the interview can be done at any US consulate/embassy, you will be asked to identify the one that best suits your convenience.
3. what documents will they ask for during the interview?
Every consulate has different document requirements for the interview and you would be given the list prior to your interview. The basic required documents are outlined in several threads here.
4. when you are successful for the interview and you are still a student in a university other than in Us what happens? what is expected of you? to immigrate immediately or you can go to the US and come back to complete your education?
If you are granted the DV visa, you normally have 6 months to travel to the US and activate your permanent residency. You can then apply for a document to allow you to remain outside the US to complete your studies. Without this permit/document, you are not expected to remain outside the US for periods of time that would bring question to your place of residency.
5. please tell me about more details of this visa lottery after the application

Please visit the visa lottery instructions page where all the details are outlined. I cannot remember the page offhand so hopefully someone else will post the link.
