30 amp breaker
The minimum recommended amperage for a house to run a dryer is typically 30 amps. However, it is crucial to consult the manufacturer's specifications and local electrical codes to determine the correct amperage requirement for your specific dryer model and household electrical system.
60 amps is twice the amount that you need for a household dryer. What you need is a two pole 30 amp breaker feeding a three conductor #10 cable. A dryer needs a neutral wire, hence the three wire cable for a 240 volt device.
Number 10 thnn copper wire.
I wouldn't, always safer to go heaver gauge. I recommend 8 gauge if you are going to be running any length of wire. Fire is never fun I believe the above answer assumes the question was meant to read, "30 amp 220 volt dryer." 12 gauge wire WILL NOT carry 30 amps safely. You need to run #10 copper minimum. It is never a bad idea to upsize, such as the recommended #8, but it is not necessary if 30 amps is what you need.
The power required to run a basic computer will be 1.35 amps for startup and .7 to .9 amps continuous. The power requirements to run an 17" monitor will be 3.5 amps startup and 1.5 amps continuous.
I am assuming that you have just moved into a new apartment building. Commercial building power systems are changing to 3 phase. The 3 phase voltages are 120/208. 240 volt equipment will run on 208 voltages but at a reduced wattage output. For example Watts = amps x volts. Say your dryer draws 20 amps x 240 volts = 4800 watts. Now at reduced voltage, 20 amps x 208 volts = 4160 watts. As you can see your dryer won't get as hot and will take longer to dry. Most apartments that come with appliances will be rated at 208 volts. See what your dryer manufacturer has to say about getting around the Power failure alarm or whether it can be bypassed to operate on the lower voltage. Other option is to sell the 240 volt dryer and buy a 208 volt dryer. at 208 volts it will not draw 20 amps either

Minimal 100. Depends on load draw of home. Can be 200 amps or 400 amps as well.

The minimum age to run for the Virginia House of Delegates is 21 years of age at the time of election. There are 100 members that are elected lasting for two terms.
About $10. Do the math. Amps x Volts = Watts. A typical dryer is 30 amps @ 240 volts. That's 7200 Watts. Average electricity cost is $.07 per 1000 watt-hours. So...if you run the dryer for one hour ...it will use 7200 watt-hours. 7.2 x $.07 = $.50 per hour of usage.
Depending on size of Fridge. But AVERAGE is 12 volts for fridge, circuit necessity 15 amps 15 amps X 120 Volts=1800 watts minimum...I'm LEARNING myself

No, you will need a minimum of at least AWG #12 and you may need even bigger depending on the Amps required to run whatever you are using.
Assuming the dryer hose is vented to the outside, the longer the distance the more likelyhood there is of a lint fire. If you are venting the dryer to under the house - don't do it. The warm air mixing with cold air will cause condensation and big expensive problems.
It depends on what sort of dryer, clothes? hair? something industrial?
