    To the questions, here are the answers:
    1. having tow different domains with same content - Yes, surely it affects your website. Search Engine's treats them as Duplicate content. Three Solutions for this:
    a. Redirect either of the one
    b. use rel=canonical tag
    c. Write unique content for each website

    2. Set Up 301 and 302 Redirects? - 301 is a permanent redirection while 302 is temporary redirection. To do this, you can google it to find the best tutorials.

    Let me know if you need any more.

    It makes no sense to have two websites with the same content. I suggest you choose the one with the higher rank and then get rid of the other one.

    Hope that helps. Have a good day!
