If the wire will fit into the breakers terminal without cutting off any strands from the #8 conductor, then it is OK to use that size. This situation usually happens when a larger size wire has to be used to overcome voltage drop when the load is quite a distance away.
You will need to use #8 wire.
No, it is not recommended to replace a 35 amp breaker with a 40 amp breaker for an AC unit. Breakers are designed to protect the circuit and the equipment, so using a higher rated breaker can lead to overheating and potential damage. It is best to use the correct amperage rated breaker for the equipment.
15 and 20 amps for receptacles and lights, and anywhere from 20 to 60 amps for dedicated loads such as water heaters and air conditioning. The fuse size MUST be matched to the load and wire size, you cannot just arbitrarily pick one!
For a 120V 20A motor, you would typically use a 12-gauge wire to ensure it can handle the current without overheating. This wire size is suitable for the amperage and voltage to provide proper insulation and safe operation for the motor.
A 10-gauge wire can typically handle around 30-35 amps of current. It is important to consult the National Electric Code and wire manufacturer specifications to determine the maximum current carrying capacity of a specific wire in a given installation.
You will need to use #8 wire.
The recommended wire size for a 35 amp breaker is typically 8 AWG (American Wire Gauge) for copper wire.

NO!
Use 8 gauge wire.
The recommended wire size for a 35 amp circuit is typically 10 gauge wire.
Usually 30 amp
The amp rating for a number 10 wire is typically around 30 to 35 amps.
The typical rating of a hot wire relay contacts is 35 amp
The typical rating of a hot wire relay contacts is 35 amp
Not at all. A 35 amp charger is far too large to charge a lawn mower battery. Use a 10 amp automatic charger.
15 and 20 amps for receptacles and lights, and anywhere from 20 to 60 amps for dedicated loads such as water heaters and air conditioning. The fuse size MUST be matched to the load and wire size, you cannot just arbitrarily pick one!
