you must run the proper size wire based on the ampacity needed, wire must have four conductors including the gound
240
It won't run.
yes 240volts is 240 volts
No, a 240 volt device runs on 240, and a 120 volt device runs on 120. Attempting to run a device on incompatible voltage results in damage.
No, unless the motor was wound for dual voltage operation, which it will state on the motor nameplate, a 110 volt motor run on 240 volts will be damaged.
You don't.

In America, Canada and other countries using a similar 60 Hz electrical service, few appliances which use mainly electronic components require a 240 volt plug outlet for everyday homeowner use.On 60 Hz services 240 volt outlet plugs are very large and are intended for use with large aplliances such as clother dryers, ranges, water heaters, etc.Another answerActually, my husband and I bought a tanning bed several years ago to use in our home. We had to call in an electrician and have one 240 volt outlet put into our workout room. There are, however, tanning beds that run on everyday outlets. We chose one with some extra features, which required more power.There are many countries outside the USA, Canada, etc. which use a 50 Hz electrical service so that 220-240 volt power is standard in all homes. Hence domestic electronic equipment that is not operated on batteries mostly uses 220-240 volts in those parts of the world.
Yes a transformer should be used. The steam table needs its correct voltage otherwise on 240 volts it will operate over its given specified nameplate wattage. A 208 volt heating element run off of 240 volt will have an output increase by 75 percent.
No. The 1-phase 240 setting on your computer's power supply is for the 240V wall outlets in other countries. The 240 outlets in your home are 2-phase 240.
You sure can. It will run a little faster.
If you mean a dual voltage motor 120/240 then yes these will operate on a 240 volt home distribution system.
