Yes. Assuming everything is wired correctly and your 30 amp AC cord is compatible with your 50 amp plug, you can do this. I think you will find, however, that your 50 amp plug has a different pin configuration than your 30 amp cord end. This is not easily resolved because there are serious dangers in going the other direction, plugging a 50 amp appliance into a 30 amp receptacle.
yes
If it is a 30 amp breaker then it is a 240 volt outlet.
No there are no adapters made for these types of installations. The reason there are no adapters is to provide a factor of safety. To plug a 30 amp plug into a 50 amp receptacle could allow 50 amps to be applied to a 30 amp rated cord. The 50 amp receptacle is more than likely being fed by a 40 amp breaker. Just change the plug cord to match the ampacity of the breaker ahead of the 50 amp receptacle. Or change the 50 amp receptacle and 40 amp breaker to a 30 amp breaker and use your existing cord plug.
No, the amperage pin configurations are different between a 15 amp and a 30 amp plug.

You can do a 30 amp twist lock receptacle 220v 3 wire (nema L6-30R) or a strait blade 30 amp 220v 3 wire receptacle (nema 6-30R) or a traditional 30 amp dryer plug. The nema # is a universal # that everyone uses to identify that plug. Ask for it. The most important part is the 30 amp male that your trying to plug in. Match it up with what you putting in the wall. Use #10 gauge wire for 30 amps
If the plug fits you are good to go. The typical range of residential voltage is from 110 to 125 VAC. You are fine within this range.
If the overcurrent protection device is 40 Amps, then a 30-Amp plug can overheat and catch fire at 40 Amps before the circuit-breaker blows.
If your question is can you use a #6 flexible SOOW cord and put a 30 amp plug on it, then yes. The breaker that feeds the receptacle that the cord will plug into can be no larger than a 30 amp breaker. What limits the cord capacity to 30 amps is the ratings of the plug on the end of the cord.
If your extension cord is truly a 30 amp cord then it is composed of #10 wire. #10 wire is rated at 30 amps. All you have to do is remove the 30 amp plug and receptacle ends from the cord and install 15 amp cord ends.
Yes is ok as long as you increase the size of the plug .I use dryer plugs( 30 amp )all the time on equipment that came with smaller plugs (20 amp).
