Power Factor ranges from zero to one. Watts which is a measure of the work being done is Volts x Amps x PF. As you can see it is most efficient to have a PF = 1. The PF is the measure by which the current waveform is out of phase with voltage waveform. They are in phase for a pure resistive load and deteriorates with inductive loads like motors.

Voltage is defined as potential difference (units of volts). Work is equivalent to power (over time), and its' unit is joules. Power is equivalent to the potential difference times the current flow. Without current flow, there is no power, so it is incorrect to define potential difference as work. What I think you're implying is potential energy and potential difference are the same: Potential energy of a rock can be increased by raising the rock into the air. The increase of potential energy of the rock is equivalent to the real work done to raise it higher into the air. This is a true statement. Potential energy (joules) and potential difference (volts) are not equivalent, though, since potential differenence is not defined as work.
No. Your energy meter monitors the supply voltage and the in-phase component of the load current, so improving your power factor will have no effect on your energy consumption and, therefore, your electricity bill.
Two factors reduce the power used by a piece of equipment compared to the volt-amps drawn from the supply: power factor and harmonic factor. Both factors increase the power transmission losses incurred in supplying a given amount of power.The power factor is less than 1 when voltage and current are out of phase with each other.When they are in phase the power equals the volt-amps except for a nonlinear load with a current that is not proportional to voltage. This generates harmonics in the current and the effect is that the power is less than the volt-amps, by an amount equal to the harmonic factor.
Power factor reduces overload capacity increased noise reduces
The decibel (dB) scale is logarithmic. An increase of power by a factor of 10 is an increase of +10 dB. If power increases by a factor of 100, that is equivalent to +20 dB.The decibel (dB) scale is logarithmic. An increase of power by a factor of 10 is an increase of +10 dB.

The power factor depends on the phase angle between the voltage and current on a conductor. The amplitude of the current has no effect on it.

Not necessarily. If a load has a low power factor, it will be drawing more current than necessary, but its energy consumption will be no different from it having a high power factor.
At least to a certain extent, by increasing the field current. Or In Real Power Plant they decrease the power factor to increase the voltage.

You are both raising the factors or numerator and denominator
Any mass raised above the earth's surface has potential energy due to the work done in raising it against gravity
Watts is equal to volts x current x Power Factor. The maximum value of Power Factor is 1 for a resistive load. For motors and other inductive devices the Power Factor is less than 1. Your maximum wattage is 10,000 watts and decreases as Power Factor decreases.
