Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Moore's Law states that the number of transistors per square inch on an integrated chip
doubles every 18 months. The more common version of this is expressed as, The speed of a
computer chip doubles every 18 months, which is incorrect. Due to the impact of Moore's Law,
the price to performance ratio of computers has fallen dramatically. Moore's Law is the principal
reason why data storage and data transmission are essentially free today. New businesses like
YouTube and Facebook have taken advantage of the opportunities offered by this development.
