You can compare a power supply to a waterfall of energy.
The high of the waterfall is the output voltage, and the quantity of water in the river is the current intensity.
The power generate is a combination of the intensity and the voltage: P=UI (the effective power is the result of the multiplication of the voltage and the intensity).
That explain why higher the voltage is, less intensity is needed to have the same power.
It is the same in a waterfall, higher it is, less water you need to make a mill turning.
No. There are several factors that may affect the output voltage. For instance: Resistors, Transformer, Voltage regulators and others that can control the output voltage to a certain level.
Rectifiers don't "stabilize the output voltage" of rectifier circuits when input voltage fluctuates. The rectifiers just rectify the input, and the output will fluctuate as the input does. Another form of "conditioning" of the rectified output is needed to address the issue of fluctuations. And we use the term regulation to talk about the effect of "stabilizing" an output voltage. Through regulation, the output will be resistant to changes in voltage when changes in the input voltage occur.
Voltage gain is the ratio of the output voltage of an amplifier to its input voltage.
Clipping occurs in the voltage waveform when the input voltage, multiplied by the voltage gain of the op-amp circuit, exceeds the op-amp supply voltage as limited by the output network. The supply voltage and output network, limits the maximum voltage that can be achieved at the output. The op-amp behaves normally within its range of maximum voltage output, and then it is clipped when it reaches the maximum voltage of the circuit.
The secondary (output) voltage is determined by the primary voltage and the turns ratio of the transformer. The secondary current is determined by the secondary voltage and the load resistance.
The effect of diode voltage drop as the output voltage is that the input voltage will not be totally transferred to the output because power loss in the diode . The output voltage will then be given by: vout=(vin)-(the diode voltage drop).
No. There are several factors that may affect the output voltage. For instance: Resistors, Transformer, Voltage regulators and others that can control the output voltage to a certain level.
Output of the alternator is controlled by the voltage regulator.
By using something called a voltage divider.
The ratio of output windings to input windings determines the ratio of output voltage to input voltage. The ratio of current is the inverse.

Generator output is controlled by voltage feedback to the voltage regulator which senses voltage drop or rise and regulates the current being sent to the armature. This rise and fall of the armature current governs the generators output voltage.
Voltage gain is the ratio of the output voltage of an amplifier to its input voltage.
Output voltage will be .5v to 4.5v
Clipping occurs in the voltage waveform when the input voltage, multiplied by the voltage gain of the op-amp circuit, exceeds the op-amp supply voltage as limited by the output network. The supply voltage and output network, limits the maximum voltage that can be achieved at the output. The op-amp behaves normally within its range of maximum voltage output, and then it is clipped when it reaches the maximum voltage of the circuit.
Because the windings of transformers have resistance, the primary and secondary currents will cause voltage drops. To compensate for the drops, the transformer may have been designed to have a higher than specified output voltage when there is little or no output current. The no load output voltage typically is only slightly greater than the specified voltage. Before measuring the output voltage, measure the input (line) voltage. If it is not as specified for the transformer, calculate its effect on the output.
In a series generator, as load is added, output voltage increases.
