No, you can not plug a 240 volt amplifier into a 120 volt outlet. That said there are a number of step-up Transformers available that will convert 110V to 220V - that's the simplest way to do it. You should make sure the transformer is rated at many times the power of your amplifier, because of inefficiencies in the amplifier.
Look on your amplifier to see how many amps it uses at 220V. Double that number for going to 110 and add 20% more amps as a conversion margin. Take that number and multiply it by 110 to get the watts you need to supply. Size the transformer accordingly.
eg.
5 amps @ 220V
5 amps * 2 = 10 amps
10*20% = 2 amps
Total amps = 12 amps
12 amps*110 = 1320 watts
In this example a transformer rated at or above the calculated wattage is recommended.

You can, but your circuit will be "protected" by a 30 amp breaker. So you'll have to consider the safety issues of having wiring and appliances that can draw up to 30 amps before tripping the breaker. Will the wiring and circuity support that much current without damage? If not, then switch to a 15 or 20 amp breaker.
The average air compressor uses only about 120v. Which is the average house socket. Thus using about 400 Watts of power.
To convert 7.5 VA to amperes, you can use the formula: Amperes = VA / Volts. For example, if the voltage is 120V (typical for household circuits), then 7.5 VA / 120V = 0.0625 amperes.
To calculate the wattage of bulb you need, you can use the formula P = V x I where P is power in watts, V is voltage in volts, and I is current in amperes (assuming a standard voltage of 120V). If the current is not provided, you can use the typical current for a household circuit of 15A. So, for a 120V socket, with a current of 15A, the maximum wattage of bulb would be 120V x 15A = 1800 watts.
Household is 120/240 volts at 60Hz. The average wall socket is 120v 60Hz.
You don't, at least, not legally.

100 Volts
No. A household receptacle is 120V. It will not work.
The potential difference between the two holes in a standard wall socket in the US is 120 volts.
No, the cord ends have different configurations to prevent this sort of thing from happening.

No, a 120V light bulb should not be used in a 250V socket. The bulb is designed to operate at a lower voltage, and connecting it to a higher voltage source can lead to overheating, damage, and potentially cause the bulb to burn out or even create a fire hazard. Always use bulbs that match the voltage rating of the socket to ensure safety and proper functioning.

There is no practical difference between a 120V bulb and a 110V bulb. Both are designed to work with the standard voltage in most household electrical systems, which is 120V in the US. The slight variation in voltage is within the acceptable tolerance range for most light bulbs.
