difference between "got + p.p" and "was + p.p"

Hello,
What is the difference between:

"I was hit" and "I got hit"

or

"I was bitten" and "I got bitten"

1. Do they have the same meaning?
2. Can I use "got + p.p" and "was + p.p" interchangeably?
3. Does this have anything to do with the verb being transitive or intransitive?

Thank you so much
