There are three kinds of people in the world: those who can count and those who can't.

Ali <You have made three mistakes in one phrase:)
First, the lower case "m" stands for prefix
"milli" in literature. Second, abbreviation
for the frequency unit "hertz" is accustomed
to be written with capital "H", Hz, in order
to pay a little tribute to German physicist
H.R.Hertz (1857-94) who invented the
characterization of electromagnetic waves.
Same holds for Ampere, Volta, etc.
Otherwise your analysis seems interesting
within your assumptions.>

My most sincere apologies to Mr. Hertz and you Ali. I will
strive to be more proper in the future.
