No, it is mostly found in this phrase or in literature. In daily life, we use 'ευχάριστο'.

Technically yes, but the standard order is 'τερπνόν' first, then 'ωφέλιμον'.

In Ancient Greek/Katharevousa, when the genitive ending '-ου' is added, the stress often moves to the penultimate syllable (the 'rule of the three syllables').
