Assuming you don't have suitable admin permissions to directly manipulate knowledge objects, then the simplest way is to 

Dashboard

  • Edit the dashboard source, copy the dashboard
  • Change to new app, create new dashboard and paste the data

If you cannot edit the dashboard, but can clone it, then clone it privately, edit the dashboard and copy as above

Lookup - assuming the existing lookup is app visible only and NOT global

  • in the source app run 
| inputlookup lookup_to_be_copied.csv
| outputlookup my_tmp_copy.csv

then in the new app space do

| inputlookup my_tmp_copy.csv
| outputlookup new_name_in_new_app.csv

This assumes that when you do the  outputlookup, it will get private or global app permissions. If it gets global, then the new app will see this, but take care - you don't want 2 lookups of the same name with global scope.

If it is output as private then you should be able to 'upgrade' the permissions to app scope in the new app.

Much will depend on the permissions you have
