The neutral is in contact with the ground at some point of the circuit.
I suspect you mean GFIC breaker. The dryer will not cause the breaker to fail.
A short, which will trip the main breaker.
A breaker trips when its rated current has either been slightly exceeded over a period of time or grossly exceeded instantaneously.
A bad circuit breaker. Replace it.
Arcing is caused by a poor electrical connection. The breaker is not making good contact with the buss bar. Try replacing the breaker.

First try electrical - fuse box or circuit breaker. It may have a circuit breaker at the end of the cord/plug. Also, try connecting it directly to a wall socket - not into a power strip. If that doesnt work, you may need to call in a pro.

A breaker trips because the circuit load has tried to draw more current that the circuit is designed to operate at. You have to establish what the total current draw of the device is. This can be found on the manufactures label. There it will state what the normal amperage draw is for the specific piece of equipment. If the breaker has tripped, look for the cause and rectify the problem before resetting the breaker. If you found the problem and corrected the cause, the breaker will reset and stay in the on position.
If it is a line thermostat and it is connected across the line instead of in series with the load then yes it will trip the breaker.

No, cobwebs alone will not trip a breaker. Breakers are designed to protect against overloading and short circuits, not cobwebs. However, if the cobwebs accumulate and cause insulation damage, it could potentially cause an electrical issue that may trip the breaker. Regular cleaning and maintenance can help prevent this.
No, they each need their own breaker of the right amp. Neither of them would cause the breaker to trip if there was a problem.
Yes
There are two conditions that would cause a breaker to trip off. One is an overload of the circuit and the other is a short circuit on the circuit. The heating element within the breaker is what monitors for circuit overloads.
