Pretty much the same as any other sound in the same medium. (There's a little dispersion due to frequency, but not much). If you are actually trying to find the dispersion, you will need more info.

Velocity of ultrasonic waves is exactly the same as the velocity of audible sound in a given medium. Only the wavelength and the frequency are inversely related to each other. The relation is this velocity = Frequency X wavelength

Depends on whether you are talking about oscillation through a medium or radio waves.
Radio waves travel at (approx.) 3*10^8 meters/second.

They are just sound waves. It depends on the medium through which they are travelling.

The speed of sound is the same, no matter what the frequency.

what is the environment the wave is to traverse?
water, air, vacuum, solid, all would affect velocity would it not?
