An ordinary transformer has two input/output terminals but a center tapped transformer has 2 input and 3 output terminals. One is taken from the center for a ground connection. This causes it to get 50% of the actual value.

And ordinary transformer contains 2 windings.

An autotransformer has one.

What is the difference between variable transformer and ordinary transformer?

Variable transformer may also refer as auto transformer. We can vary the output voltage of the transformer. But in the ordinary transformers output voltage is already designed.

What is the difference between an ordinary transformer and resonant coupling energy transfer?

An ordinary transformer uses mutual inductance to transfer energy from one circuit to another, while resonant coupling energy transfer utilizes resonance between the coils to enable more efficient energy transfer. Resonant coupling allows for wireless power transfer over larger distances compared to traditional transformers.
