You wouldn't find them very often in most recent pop music. If you go back to earlier pop music they would turn up here and there, it depends what music in particular you mean. American pop music used to be more jazz influenced (and jazz, influenced by show tunes and such from the era when they could be relatively complex). It was still common up through the 70s to hear pop music with a wide pallette of chord types before going more plain vanilla after that, for the most part. (Not that people don't use them at all now.)

Songs don't always stay in the same key for the duration of the tune, but to the extent that those were V chords (the first two examples) then yes they resolve to C (minor) which is evident because that's the chord they end on.
