Solution Hint:
[1] General purpose diode is used for rectification, whereas zener diode is for voltage regulation
[3] Power gain = 10000
Gain in dB = 10log(10000) = 40dB
Voltage gain = 10000
Gain in dB = 20log(10000) = 80dB 
[4] In the Emitter follower circuit, the input side (base-collector terminals) is reverse biased, ie, High input impedance and the Output side (emitter-collector terminals) is forward biased ie, low output impedance
[11] Ideal power supply should not dissipate heat ( ie, internal resistance should be near to zero)
[12] Ideal diode is nothing but ideal DC switch( zero resistance while turned-on and infinity resistance while turned-off)
[13] Flow of charges (unit = coulomb) is known as current(unit = ampere).

  4. [3] power gain = 10000
    Gain in dB = 10log(10000) = 40dB
    voltage gain = 10000
    Gain in dB = 20log(10000) = 80dB

    So where did 100 come from?
