What happens to a 220v stereo when connected to 110v?
Stereo can't work unless sufficient voltage , same will be connected to higher input voltage your system will be damaged.
Can you be hurt by 110v?

What happens when you connect a 240 v lamp to 110 v outlet?
It is not uncommon to find ratings on appliances of 110v,115v,120v,125v depending on where it was manufactured. Typically these ratings allow a tolerance of + or- 10%, meaning an appliance with a 110v rating may be plugged into a source that provides between 99v and 121v.
What causes a 220v wire to pull only 110v?
The fact that it's supposed to. Voltage is stated as the difference between the two wires carrying electricity to the load. When they bring power to the house from the utility, you get two wires carrying 110v but they're 180 degrees out of phase. Imagine one carries positive 110v and the other carries negative 110v. If you hook one of these wires plus a neutral (zero volts) to the load, you get 110v--110v over 0v. If you hook both of them to the load, you get positive 110v over negative 110v, or 220v. So...red to white is 110v, black to white is 110v, red to black is 220v.
How is 220v water heater rewired to 110v?
Use a transformer to lower from 220 to 110V.

Can 240v coil contactor be connected to 110v supply?
no
What happens when you connect a 110 volt motor to 220 volts?
On a three wire supply system if you connect the two 110V wires together and they are across the phase they will short out and trip the breaker. If the two 110V wires are supplied from across the phase and connected to a motor then the motor will run. If the 110V wires are on the same phase nothing will happen.
Are both 110V buses in phase?
The two 110V buses are 180 degrees out of phase. This is known as 120/240 split phase power, with the center point called neutral and connected to (protective earth) ground back at the distribution panel.

Is there any way to connect four 1500-watt heaters to 120V if they are currently connected to 240V and being used as a makeshift hobby oven?
No. If the heaters are designed for 220V they cannot fun off of 110V. Also running a 1500W heater off of 110V would require a dedicated circuit. So four 1500W heaters would require 4 dedicated 110V circuits.

An electric heating element is connected to a 110v circuit of a 3.2 A is flowing through the element How much energy is used up during a period of 5 hours by the element?
110v x 3.2 a=352 watts time 5= 17600.00 watts or 353 watts per hour
What sort of power source is the Brookstone Personal Massager powered by?
The Brookstone Personal Massager is a cordless device. It is charged by an 110V-240V AC adapter that can be plugged into any suitable electrical source.
An electric iron always draws a current of 3.4 amp from the 220v supply line what current will this electric iron draws when connected to 110v supply line?
1.7amp
Can a 400-110v step-down transformer be reverse-connected to the secondary of an 11kv-110v transformer to obtain a 400v 3-phase and neutral output from an 11kv mains panel to make an AMF mains input?
Possibly... but only a trained electrical technician would be licensed to do that kind of work!
