1) Are some of the augments effect such as +5% biotic power damage passive? For example: All 5 weapon in my load out list has +5% biotic power damage, am I getting +25% all the time, +10%( including melee ), or just +5% when I equip one of the range weapon?
2) If I'm wearing armor set which +100% power damage and +100% biotic power damage, am I getting 300% biotic power damage or 400%?
3) Which weapon or skill has hidden stat which add damage against armor or shield? I remember last time shotgun and ice good against armor while automatic gun and electric good against shield.
4) Besides head, which body part consider as weak point, especially for machine? And is aoe always hit weak points or vice-versa?

Some of these questions will require trial and error and/or data mining to answer with certainty. The game doesn't always work as described by in-game menus and descriptions, as you seem to be fully aware.
Question #4 is easy, in part. Machines generally have an "eye" that is a weak point, as well as potentially having other similarly colored weak points. Creatures generally have colored weak pints, as well. The brute types, for instance the Fiends, have weak patches on their backs. Enemies' weak points are discernible by color-coding, essentially.

1) Buffs are only applicable when a specific piece of gear is equipped
2) +200% on your current biotic strength. So, 300%.
3) Fire damage against armor. Ice / electric damage against shields.
4) Most Remnant enemies have an "eye" that you can aim for as their critical spot

It doesn't do much damage to armour either, but armoured enemies are slowed and weakened to damage from other powers and weapons.

Cryo beam and cryo ammo is a debuff to armor for follow up damage from other sources.
