If you are playing the Steam version with an Internet connection, you can just let Steam do all that work for you by enabling cloud saving for your character.
Otherwise, your characters are stored in:
- Windows:
%userprofile%\Documents\My Games\Terraria\Players - Mac:
~/Library/Application Support/Terraria/Players - Linux:
~/.local/share/Terraria/Players
However, if you're using Steam cloud saves, the files will be in a different location.
<Steam directory>/userdata/<Steam3 ID>/105600/remote/players
To copy a character, you will need both the .plr file and the folder that are named like your character. Technically, only the file is necessary, but the folder contains your minimap data.
Yes, if you wish to have both worlds on your PC (assuming that's the destination computer), you need to rename the transferred file to "world2.wld". Otherwise, the older one will be replaced by the newer one.

Go into Documents (or your steam file directory), go to "My Games", go to "terraria", and copy+paste the files for chars and worlds onto a flash drive.
Then, move it to another computer's directory and put it in the folder you took it out of.
