Yes you can use #14 AWG romex for a receptacle as long as the breaker protecting it rated 15 amps or less. If it is a 20 amp rated circuit then you will need to use #12 AWG.
No there are no adapters made for these types of installations. The reason there are no adapters is to provide a factor of safety. To plug a 30 amp plug into a 50 amp receptacle could allow 50 amps to be applied to a 30 amp rated cord. The 50 amp receptacle is more than likely being fed by a 40 amp breaker. Just change the plug cord to match the ampacity of the breaker ahead of the 50 amp receptacle. Or change the 50 amp receptacle and 40 amp breaker to a 30 amp breaker and use your existing cord plug.
A NEMA 14-30 is a 3 pole 4 wire grounding receptacle rated at 30 amps 125/250 volts. A NEMA 10-30 is a 3 pole, 3 wire non grounding receptacle rated at 30 amps 125/250 volt.As the NEMA 10 device has no ground terminal on it, it is not a standard receptacle device so no adapter is made for it.

The new receptacle has to be a GFCI receptacle. Try and locate the inside junction box on the outside of the house. The back of the old receptacle should have a 1/2 inch knockout in it. Remove it. Drill through the KO hole right through the siding to the outside. This will be the center of the new outside GFCI receptacle's junction box. Cut a new EZ box into the outside siding. Feed new wire 2C-#14 from the old box to the new box. Terminate both ends and replace covers. The new outside receptacle will need a weatherproof receptacle cover plate.
No, the wire will overheat.

Romax is used in households. It is a brand name, but everyone around where I live calls it Romax. Kind of like calling facial tissue 'Kleenex'.
The types of wire you can use on duplex receptacle with pressure terminal are labeled on the receptacle, next to the holes. AWG 14 and AWG 12 are the typical wire gauges used in this application.
we used a receptacle to hold the cookies.
Characteristics of a receptacle is the rating in amps and the pin configuration, which govern the use that the receptacle is approved for.
Yes, that is one combination you can use.
Most of the times yes. If it is an appliance that gets pulled out of a receptacle under load and there is a small arc produced this will not damage the receptacle. It will pit the blades inside the receptacle but not enough to render the receptacle unserviceable It is not recommended to use this method to disconnect electrical equipment, use a switch in the circuit as they are designed to open a circuit under load.
Rubbermaid sells them and calls them "Recycling Containers". I guess you could also use the word "Receptacle", such as "Glass Receptacle" or "Paper Receptacle".

The neutral in a receptacle is the return conductor to complete the circuit back to the distribution panel. When a device is plugged into the receptacle this completes the circuit and allows the current to flow and the device to operate.
