Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -CPU speed is determined by how many calculations the processor can perform per cycle. Clock speed is expressed in gigahertz-billions of cycles per second.
Detailed explanation-2: -The speed of electron flow has become a limiting factor in CPUs, in that a single clock pulse may not have reached the entirety of the chip before the next one is triggered. That is why clock speeds are stagnating and multiple cores have become the next evolution.
