bridge rectifier is the best rectifier.
The efficiency(n) of fullwave rectifier is defined as: n=DC output Power/AC input power But Power=V*I n=Vdc*Idc/Vrms*Irms But Vdc=2Vm/pi,Idc=2Im/pi ,Irms=Im/root(2),Vrms=Vm/root(2) (Im:Peak Curent) n=(4Vm*Im/pi^2)/(Vm*Im/2)=8/pi^2=0.812=81.2%. So efficiency of full wave rectifier is 81.2%
When a DC motor is powered by a rectifier, the rectifier converts alternating current (AC) from the power source into direct current (DC), allowing the motor to operate. The rectified output provides a unidirectional current that energizes the motor's windings, enabling it to generate torque and rotate. However, the performance may vary depending on the rectifier type and the quality of the DC output, potentially affecting the motor's speed and efficiency. Additionally, if the rectifier produces a pulsating DC, it may introduce vibrations and noise into the motor operation.
Working the rectifier
centre tap transform convert ac into full wave rectifeir dc .It needs only two diodes but efficiency is less.
Rectifier is used to convert alternating current to direct current.
Efficiency is double in case of full wave rectifier.
The conversion efficiency n of a rectifier ckt is generally defined as Na= dc power delivered to the load/ ac power input to the rectifier ckt. Or n = Pdc/Pac

1. Efficiency of full wave rectifier is better than other rectifiers i.e, Efficiency()=81.2%. 2.It's Peak Inverse voltage (P I V)=2Vm.
Most computer power supplies contain both. The transformers are usually toroidal transformers for high efficiency and compactness.
It is defined as dc power delivered to the load to the ac input power from secondary transformer

Working the rectifier
such a control rectifier that control or rectifier single phase. for that purpose we used SCR that is called single phase controlled rectifier.
Bridge Rectifier DiodesIn a "bridge" rectifier there is 4 diodes In a "full wave" there are 2 diodes.In a "half wave" rectifier there is 1 diode.
Nothing will happen to the diode but that rectifier effectively becomes a half-wave rectifier.
when rectifier is on, the capacitor is almost transparent (it charges to the voltage provided from the rectifier) when rectifier is off, capacitor holds the peak voltage since it stored a charge during rectifier on time.
