Classical Guitars commonly use nylon strings, although sometimes other synthetic materials are used. Normal acoustic guitars are built to handle the higher tension of steel strings, and using nylon strings can cause the neck to bend or warp over time.
Every one I've ever seen in my life does so I would say yeah pretty much.
Mine has metal, but some have nylon.
Most classical guitar strings are made from a sort of nylon material. Some expensive types of 6 or 12 string guitars used for Mexican music use steel strings.
Nylon Or steel are best for acoustic but i would recommend having nylon strings on classical guitar rather than acoustic.
Nylon - it is a classical guitar.
Nylon strings are lower tension in comparison to steel strings and have a warmer tone than steel string, thus making steel strings higher tension than nylon with a brighter tone than nylon strings.
Nylon strings give a brighter, crisper sound than steel strings, and they don't tear one's fingernails up as bad as steel strings.

The term acoustic, albeit not neccessarily accurate, usually implies a guitar with steel strings, whereas classical implies the use of nylon strings. For playing almost all types of modern music, a guitar with steel strings is preferred.
Classical guitar strings are mainly made out of nylon. Different thickness of the strings allows for differences in tension. Today, string makers are also experimenting with a mixture of carbon and nylon which allows for thinner strings and adds more clarity to the tone. Carbon strings tend to be brighter in tone than the pure nylon strings. Bass strings (lower three strings in a set) have the same nylon core, but they are additionally wrapped with a silver-plated coper wire. Electric guitar strings use the similar process, but with steel instead of nylon. There is a great video on Discovery/Science channel website ("How it's made") that shows the entire process of making steel strings for guitar.
Yes. The steel bass strings will have a braided nylon core. If in doubt buy a new set of classical guitar strings.
