What happens if I plagiarize?

If I use a translator that converts from Spanish (or any other language) to English, is it plagiarism?

If I include something considered general knowledge—like the Titanic ship sunk—do I have to cite it?

If I include a passage from a source and place quotation marks around that material, but I don’t cite it properly, is it plagiarism?

If I take ideas from a source, and use them in my paper but I use my own words without citing the source, is it plagiarism?

If I’m paraphrasing a source, but certain words are too advanced to paraphrase so I use them without quotation marks, but I do cite where the information came from, is it plagiarism?

If I include a chart without crediting the source, is it plagiarism?

If I run an essay through a program that changes the wording completely, and then use the new language, is it plagiarism?
