A #10 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C are both rated at 30 amps.

AWG # 8
A #8 aluminium wire with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 45 amps.
Technically no. In the USA the NFPA electrical code requires a separate circuit for each large appliance receptacle- there are a few exceptions (such as a heater and AC on same circuit) - I don't think the welder is one of the exceptions. In practice, as long as only one receptacle is used at a time, it will work fine Make sure that the wire size is correct for the current (amp) draw. This is taken off of the welder nameplate. Size the breaker to protect the wire size. If more that one welder gets plugged in the breaker will trip.
Depends on how many amps it pulls and the size of the wire in the circuit.
The size breaker you use is determined by the size wire used in the circuit. If you use AWG #12/2 wire then use a 20 amp breaker. If you use AWG # 14/2 then use a 15 amp breaker.
Normally it is a 20 amp using AWG 12/2 gauge wire. But it really depends on what size wire is on that circuit. If it is white AWG 14 gauge then use a 15 amp breaker. If it is yellow AWG 12 gauge then use a 20 amp breaker.

A typical home entertainment system may require a 15-amp circuit breaker. It's important to ensure the total power consumption of all components does not exceed the amp rating to prevent overloading the circuit. It's recommended to consult an electrician for proper sizing and installation.

AWG #4 copper.
Use 8 gauge wire.

For a 42 amp circuit, you should use at least a 8-gauge wire to ensure it can handle the current safely and prevent overheating. It's always best to consult the National Electrical Code (NEC) or a licensed electrician for specific wiring requirements to ensure compliance with local regulations.
The size of the ground wire for a circuit is typically based on the size of the circuit breaker protecting that circuit. For a 200 amp circuit breaker, the recommended ground wire size is 4/0 AWG (American Wire Gauge) copper wire. This wire size helps ensure that the ground wire can safely carry any fault currents that may occur in the electrical system.

Using a wire rated for 100 amps for a 60-amp circuit is generally fine. It's important to ensure that the wire gauge matches the amperage requirements to prevent overheating and potential fire hazards. Check local electrical codes to confirm that it is within regulations.
