Can I run a 230 volt 20 amp table saw on 10 3 with a 250 foot run?
Yes you can. If you don't need 120 volts at the saw then you can use 2Conductor # 10 copper wire. FYI, don't know if you know it, but you don't count the bare ground wire in the conductor count. Anyways With # 10 wire you will get a 6 volt drop at the end of 250 feet which is 2.5% leaving you a working voltage of 234 volts.
Can you run a 10 gauge wire 250 feet to the barn on a 120 amp breaker in the house If not what amp breaker should I use?
#10 cable is no good for 120 amps, you need #2 cable, and it can be used at a distance of 250 ft.
What size wire for 250 foot extension cord to run a 120 Volt 8 amp electric tree trimmer?
For a 5% volt drop of 6 volts the total resistance should be less than 6/8 ohms, 0.75 ohms, which for a total wire run of 500 ft is equivalent to 1.5 ohms per 1000 ft. Wire tables show that a #10 cable should be used. A #12 cable would give a volt drop of 5.3% which would probably be acceptable for occasional use and easier to store.
What size wire and circuit breaker is needed for an electric oven 4 wires with rated load of 34.9 amps 220v that is about 100 foot run from the electrical panel?
That would be a 40 amp 220v circuit. Circuit breaker is 40 amps and wire is 8 awg. Should use solid copper wire. Follow oven installation instructions.
Solid wire vs stranded ground wire on a 200 amp service which one do you use on my home?
Stranded wire is the choice as you have tight bends and a short run, solid wire isn't very good in this format.

What size service head is needed to power 250 amp 415 volt installation?
If you use 250 or 300 MCM wire you will need a 2 1/2" weather head. If you use 300 MCM wire then you will need a 3" weather head.

What size wire should I use for a 120v 30amp 150 foot long run?
A #4 copper or #3 aluminium conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 30 amps for 150 feet on a 120 volt system.
