It won't run, there is insufficient start up voltage. It's all in the way the windings in the motor are connected. Since I'm an electrician, I just haven't done this because I always do something to make it right i.e. change the input voltage or change the connections of the motor windings. I would suspect the most it would do is buzz. Just a guess.
If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician to have it rewired if it's dual voltage or change the power source to accommodate your motor.

As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.
Before you do any work yourself,
on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,
always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.

If you plug a 110v appliance into a 220v outlet, you risk damaging the appliance due to the higher voltage. The excess voltage can cause the appliance to overheat, burn out, or even catch on fire. It is important to always match the voltage requirements of the appliance with the voltage of the outlet to avoid damage.
some devices such as cell phone chargers wont mind, but others, such as portable music devices, household appliances etc will instantly die. If you manage to get a 110 configured plug into a 220 volt plug configuration, you would trip the breaker on overcurrent.
If you are lucky, and the unit has a switching device, nothing. If it doesn't, then you will more than likely notice a "fizz" and a burning smell. If left, the smell will get worse, and if you are lucky then, the unit will fail, if you are very unlucky, the unit could start to burn.
Hopefully the fuse box, will cut in, otherwise you could have a fire on your hands, and if not attended to, you could loose your house.
** [Warning] This is why it is important to read the instructions of a unit and not to alter the intended electrical input - [End of Warning] **

This scenario is not possible due to the configuration of plug (caps) that the manufactures install on their equipment. The pin configuration of a 120 volt plug will only fit into a 120 volt receptacle. A 220 volt receptacle has a completely different pin configuration so that no matter how hard you try and push it in, the 120 volt plug will not fit.
A 110 v single phase supply has a peak voltage of 156 volts so a capacitor rated at 230 v can be used. However it must be a bipolar capacitor that works on ac, and not an electrolytic capacitor that works only on dc.
unless it's a wide-input switchmode power supply (almost all phone chargers, etc) it will be destroyed.
if type-plate states: 100-250VAC 50-60Hz, you can use it anywhere in the world.

Plug a 110v hair straightener into a 220v outlet?
It is not recommended to plug a 110v hair straightener into a 220v outlet as it may damage the appliance and pose a safety hazard. You should use a voltage converter or transformer to safely use the hair straightener with the higher voltage outlet.
Can I use a 220V oven with 110V outlet?
No, you cannot use a 220V oven with a 110V outlet. The voltage requirements of the appliance must match the outlet for it to function properly and safely. Using a higher voltage appliance with a lower voltage outlet can damage the oven and pose a safety hazard.
Why can't i connect a 220v appliance directly to a 110v power source?
Connecting a 220V appliance to a 110V power source can damage the appliance and potentially cause a fire. The appliance is designed to run on 220V input, so using a lower voltage can overload its components. It's important to use the correct voltage to ensure safe and proper operation.
Can you use a 220v outlet to plug a 110v electronic device into?
You cannot directly plug a 110v device into a 220v outlet. This can cause damage to the device or even create a safety hazard. You would need a voltage converter or transformer to safely convert the 220v outlet to the appropriate voltage for the 110v device.
If the electrical device says 100-240 v is it safe to plug a 110 device into a 220 outlet?
No, it is not safe to plug a 110V device into a 220V outlet. The voltage difference can damage the device and may cause a short circuit or even a fire hazard. It's important to match the voltage requirements of the device with the outlet to prevent damage or safety risks.
Can you plug a 220v deep fryer into a 110v outlet?
No. Attempting to run an appliance on insufficient voltage can cause damage to the appliance and can be dangerous. Call an electrician and get him to install a 220v plug

No, you cannot use a 220V oven with a 110V outlet. The voltage requirements of the appliance must match the outlet for it to function properly and safely. Using a higher voltage appliance with a lower voltage outlet can damage the oven and pose a safety hazard.
Can a 110v outlet be converted into a 220v outlet Or is there something I can purchase that will be less of a hassle than rewiring this is for a conventional oven?
This is a two part question. Can a 110v outlet be converted into a 220v outlet, yes it can. The other part of the question needs to be discussed.
Why can't i connect a 220v appliance directly to a 110v power source?
Connecting a 220V appliance to a 110V power source can damage the appliance and potentially cause a fire. The appliance is designed to run on 220V input, so using a lower voltage can overload its components. It's important to use the correct voltage to ensure safe and proper operation.
If I connect 110v xbox one to a 220v outlet what will burn will the power supply burn or will the Xbox one burn?
If you connect 110V xbox one to a 220V outlet, only the power supply will burn and not the Xbox one.

What is the house is 220 outlet and you want to plug in a 110?
You cannot directly plug a 110V device into a 220V outlet as it can damage the device. You would need a voltage converter to step down the voltage from 220V to 110V to safely use the device with the outlet. It is important to match the voltage requirements of your device with the outlet to avoid damage.
How do you wire a 110v supply for 220v heaters?
A 220v heater has two 110v lines coming into it--either two 110v lines with a neutral, like a range, or two 110v lines with no neutral, like a water heater. Unless there's a fan in the system, they only use two wires. It's cheaper that way. If you have a DEDICATED circuit for each 220v heater--one where there's only one thing on the breaker--and you have at least 10/2 wire (unless the amps call for 8/2 or 6/2 wiring, which happens), you can install a two-pole breaker to feed 220v to the heater. If you're just trying to plug the heater into an outlet and get it to work, you've got a problem in that you can't pull 220v out of a 110v outlet no matter how hard you try. Sorry.
What happens when a 2A 220 volt appliance is plugged into a 110 volt?
Plugging a 2A 220V appliance into a 110V outlet may cause the appliance to not function properly or not turn on at all. The lower voltage can potentially damage the appliance's internal components, so it is not recommended to plug it in without a voltage converter.
120V gas Kenmore dryer and the hook up location has the big 240V female receptacle--what is easiest solution thanks?
The easiest solution would be to hire a licensed electrician to install a new 120V outlet that is compatible with your Kenmore dryer. This way, you can safely connect the dryer without the risk of damaging it or causing a hazard.
