The wire size depends on the amperage, not the voltage. The fact that the welder runs on 440 volts does not affect the wire size!

You need to ask this question instead:

What size wire do you need for a three phase welder on an eight foot run if the nameplate amps are 45A?

Why foot valve is not required in reciprocating pumps?

A foot valve is not required in reciprocating pumps because these pumps can create suction and effectively draw fluid into the pump chamber during their intake stroke. Unlike centrifugal pumps, which rely on continuous flow and need a foot valve to maintain prime, reciprocating pumps can handle intermittent flow and are designed to operate with a positive pressure during the suction phase. Additionally, the check valves within the pump ensure that fluid flows in the desired direction and prevents backflow, eliminating the need for an external foot valve.

Where does you neutral come from single phase transformer?

In a single phase system the neutral wire is the return path of the circuit and may be near ground potential, in multiphase systems it carries the unbalanced current.In a single phase system where only one "hot" wire supplies current to the load, the "neutral" wire completes the circuit and carries the current flowing from the load back to the power station.As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.

Would using a 200 foot extension cord which is 6 gauge 3 wire cord on a 220 single phase welder present any problems?

Absolutely, you will have voltage drop, maybe enough voltage drop that the welder will not work <<>> To do a voltage drop calculation for the 200 foot cable the input amperage of the welder needs to be stated. At a maximum distance of 201 feet and limiting the voltage drop to 3% or less, a #6 copper conductor can deliver 37 amps on a 220 volt system. Check the nameplate on the welder to see if it falls withing the range of 37 amps input amperage. Do not use the welders output amperage.

Would using a 60 foot extension cord which is 6 gauge 3 wire cord on a 220 volt single phase welder present any problems?

It shouldn't. Check the nameplate for input amperage of the machine. Your #6 wire is good for 60 amps. If the nameplate amperage is below 60 amps then you are good to go.

How many eight foot long 2 x 4's will you need to build a wall eight feet high and twelve feet long?

Okay, this requires a little simple math and some three dimensional thinking. For the fence (wall) planks alone, you will need 55 eight foot 2 x 4's. For a simple box frame you will need another 8. 55 + 8 = 63 The problem is, the fence (wall) will not be free standing. You'll need three twelve foot 4 x 4 posts (twelve foot long, because four feet of them will be set into the ground.
