No, it is not safe to replace a 125V 20A fuse with a 220V 20A fuse. Fuses are designed to protect electrical circuits from overloading, and using a higher voltage fuse could lead to damage or fire hazards in the circuit. Always replace a fuse with the same voltage and amperage rating as the original.
Yes, you can convert a 3-prong 240V outlet to a NEMA twist lock 20A style outlet, although you may need to rewire the circuit. The twist lock outlet typically requires an extra ground wire in addition to the hot and neutral wires. It is important to follow electrical codes and guidelines when making any changes to electrical outlets for safety reasons.
Ovens typically run at 240 volts which will be a two pole breaker in your panel. Watts = volts x amps. 4800 / 240 = 20 amps. If by chance you are using 120 volts then double it to 40 amps. All wiring must conform to size of breaker used.
The National Electrical Code (US) allows up to thirteen 20 amp receptacles on a 20 amp circuit. 120V x 20A = 2400 VA each duplex receptacle is calculated at 180 VA 2400 / 180 = 13.3333 receptacles, since you can't put a third of a receptacle in, you have to round down to 13.
No, it is not safe to use a power strip to connect multiple pieces of equipment that each require a dedicated 20A outlet. This can overload the circuit and pose a fire hazard. It is recommended to consult with an electrician to install the appropriate outlets for your equipment.

You can, but be advised that whatever you plug into the new outlet should not exceed 5000W capacity (20A x 250V = 5000W)or you could risk overheating the new outlet with serious results. To prevent this, you should make sure the circuit breaker is a 20A also.
You have to replace the wire (as you are increasing the current capacity), the outlet, and the breaker. Essentially you have to remove the old circuit and put in a new one. You can't reuse parts of the old circuit as you are increasing the current capacity and they would be underrated.
You need a dedicated circuit for that. You cannot power a 220V device off 110V.

Yes it will operate it fine.
Yes. It should be a 'heavy-duty' extension cord, rated for 15A or 20A .
Yes but you will not get the full watt rating out of the tank. Watts = amps x volts. Say the tank draws 20 amps. 20A x 240V = 4800 watts. 20A x 208V = 4160 watts. It will take longer to heat your water with less wattage.
480V about 20A 240V about 40A look at the nameplate duty cycle and efficiencies vary
Probably not, the pin configuration of a 30A dryer plug should be different from a 15 or 20A A/C plug. The demand draw of a dryer is higher than that a A/C unit and would trip the 15 or 20A breaker. By putting a bigger breaker on the A/C circuit would not be a good idea either because the wire size to the A/C plug would then be under sized.

Change the receptacle and the plug is the best way to do this. Provided you use a properly rated plug, changing the plug type will not affect the appliance at all.
