Watch the GIF play, then download it.
Animated WebP and GIF both store frames with their own display times, so the motion and timing carry over. What GIF can't hold is as much color: up to 256 colors a frame, where WebP keeps full color, so smooth gradients can band.
Transparency changes too. WebP can make an edge partly see-through; GIF pixels are either clear or solid, so soft edges turn hard.
Google says animated WebP files are smaller than the same animation as GIF, so expect the GIF to come out larger. Three settings bring it down: a smaller frame cuts the most, fewer colors next, and keeping one frame in two or three makes the motion choppier but the file much smaller.

Questions
No. The frames are decoded and the GIF is written in your browser.
WebP compresses animation far better than GIF. Pick a smaller size, fewer colors or fewer frames to shrink it.
Yes. Each frame keeps its own display time. Keeping one frame in two or three lengthens the frames left so the total time stays the same.
Clear areas stay clear. Partly see-through pixels become clear or solid, since GIF has nothing in between.
Ones that can read WebP frames one by one, such as Chrome and Edge. The tool tells you if yours can't.
