How may conductors are needed to operate a three way switch correctly and safely?
Rmazzarini
To do this without a diagram is difficult, but assume that one switch contacts is represented by the Three of Hearts and the other by the Three of Diamonds. You connect a wire between the top heart and top diamond and one between the bottom heart and bottom diamond. Then the center heart goes to the hot side of the light and the center diamond goes to the supply hot. The white wire from supply is wired to the white side of the load. Depending on where the feed is for the light (in the same box as supply or other box) depends on how you get the white neutra wire from supply to light. Google typically has wiring diagrams for 3-way switch wiring.

How do you plug in nema 6-20 into a North American 3 prong outlet?
The 6-20 is a designation for a 20 amp circuit. Most homes have receptacles rated for 15 amps. The cord is designed so that you cannot plug it into a 3 prong 15 amp outlet for safety purposes. The wire, fuse or circuit breaker as well as the receptacle must be properly rated so you don't burn your house down. Proper inspection and possible rewiring to the power panel is needed to operate it safely.

Can a microwave be plugged into an extension cord?
Yes, as long as the extension cord is rated for the load. Most microwave ovens use 1000W or more, some less. A standard two wire extension cord would be unsafe. There are, however, extension cords which have the proper gauge of wire and the necessary 3-prong outlets which a microwave would need to operate safely.

When did Benjamin Franklin invent the lightning rod and how did it happen?
Benjamin Franklin invented the lightning rod in 1749. He had speculated that lightning was a form of electricity, which was just beginning to be scientifically investigated at that time, and he confirmed that idea with his famous experiment of flying a kite with a key attached to it, in a thunder storm. He discovered that lightning it attracted to electrical conductors, and that it can be conducted safely into the ground, if conductors are correctly arranged.
Does the O2 sensors cause the car to stall while driving if they are not operating correctly?

What size resistor to drop 3 volts to 2.4 to use an LED?
LEDS are diodes and will operate correctly only when the voltage is sufficient and also the current is sufficient. So i cannot solve it correctly since i have no info on the current. Generally a led can be safely conduct if the current is around 0.020 amps or 20ma so 3-2.4=.6v .6/.02= 30 ohms.
