“What happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object?"
I think I missed something...anyway I thought the video was cool too. And I liked the Troopers attitude!
I have actually given this a lot of thought...
The two factors to consider are weapons and shields.
Star Wars:
Weapons - Laser cannons & proton torpedoes
Shields - Deflector screens
Star Trek:
Weapons - Phasers & photon/quantum torpedoes
Shields - a much more highly advanced type of shielding technology
What's interesting is that the deflector screens used by Star Wars ships are actually used by Star Trek ships as navigation shields, keeping asteroids and other particles from hitting the ship while it's in warp. They also completely block lasers. Meanwhile, phasers can completely pass through deflector shields, making the weapons and shields of Star Wars ships totally useless against Trek tech.
If the Enterprise had been at the Battle of Endor, it could have used its phasers and torpedoes to destroy the Death Star's firing ring, then literally flown through the entire Imperial fleet and decapitated each and every Star Destroyer.
This video is actually very accurate to what would actually happen (though Vader's use of the Force is greatly exaggerated, funny though it may be):

Definitely not; look at my above analysis.
Only if it can get a shot off, and we don't even know if lasers have any effect on ST shields whatsoever.
Doubtful. The Enterprise could beam the Sun Crusher's pilot into space. Also, the Sun Crusher doesn't cause those explosions on its own; it needs to detonate a nearby star and hope that it doesn't get caught in the blast itself. (and the Enterprise can warp out of the system faster than the 'Crusher's hyperdrive could even get ready to jump)
Definitely not.
The Enterprise could annihilate the station while easily avoiding its energy beam.
Hey, I love SW more than ST, but ST's weapons would completely destroy SW's.

The force could drestroy the enterpirse, for example a Force Storm.
