The efficiency of a linear regulated power supply is calculated by dividing the output power by the input power and multiplying by 100 to express it as a percentage. The output power is determined by the product of the output voltage and output current, while the input power is the product of the input voltage and input current. The formula can be expressed as:
[ \text{Efficiency} (%) = \left( \frac{\text{Output Power}}{\text{Input Power}} \right) \times 100 ]
Due to the inherent voltage drop across the regulator, linear power supplies typically have lower efficiency, especially when there is a significant difference between input and output voltages.
all about regulated power supply
Advantage of regulated power supply.
a linear power supply the noise or ripple can be reduced to mv. However it is bulky heavy and inefficient A switching power supply it is easier to filter its output but the hi frequency noise and spikes are not that ease to get rid off. The weight and size can be greatly reduced and the efficiency greatly improved
Advantage of regulated power supply.
1.Efficiency is high compared to linear power suplies 2.ripple voltage is very low 20mv. 3.constant regulating voltage is the one of the advantage of smps.
Maintain constant stable supply and reference voltages.

If land was not regulated, then there could be more pollution. Polluted areas would cause the water supply to be unusable and undrinkable if runoff from chemical sources enter into the supply.

I'm no expert but I wouldn't try that: I think battery chargers adjust the current flow to battery as it charges. The regulated power supply mentioned has a steady flow of current out (regulated) doesn't it? I would expect the battery to be damaged by charging with a power supply.
in regulated the voltage will be a constant one and can't be variant but is in case of unregulated
Important considerations when choosing power supplies are type of output, regulated or unregulated. Regulated means the Voltage will stay constant (at least while the supply is operating within its specification) irrespective of the load. Unregulated supplies tend to have higher outputs than stated and are normally used with equipment that has it's own internal regulation circuitry. If in doubt always choose a regulated supply. Using Voltages higher than recommended for a particular piece of equipment may cause permanent damage. Where Wattage or VA rating is quoted this often refers to the total wattage available for a power supply. This figure is mostly used for multi rail units, so that when the VA is calculated for each output and then added together, the total Wattage / VA should not exceed the makers rating.
