Answer 1

You open a new activity (i.e screen) by creating and firing off a new intent:

Intent intent = new Intent(this, YourNewActivity.class)
startActivity(intent)

Answer 2

comment to Erich Douglass post: and don't forget to describe it into AndroidManifest.xml like

<activity android:name=".YourNewActivity" android:label="@string/app_name" />
