Moore's Law is named after Intel co-founder Gordon E. Moore, who described the long term trend (that the number of transistors that can be placed inexpensively on an integrated circuit doubles approximately every two years) in his 1965 paper. The paper noted that the number of components in integrated circuits had doubled every year from the invention of the integrated circuit in 1958 until 1965 and predicted that the trend would continue 'for at least ten years'.
His prediction has proved to be accurate, in part because the law is now used in the semiconductor industry to guide long-term planning and to set targets for research and development.
- The capabilities of many digital electronic devices are strongly linked to Moore's law: processing speed, memory capacity, sensors, and even the number and size of pixels in digital cameras. All of these are improving at roughly exponential rates as well. This exponential improvement has dramatically enhanced the impact of digital electronics in nearly every segment of the world economy.

What law is applied in the launching of a spaceship?
Lots of physics laws are used here. Newton's laws are very important; so is the law of gravitation, as well as calculations involving air resistance, chemistry for the combustion, etc.
How does Newtons three laws of motion help the science world?
1st law gives us an idea that a body is subject to the principle of inertia of rest, motion or direction. 2nd law, being the most important of the three, helps us to deduce the equation:F=ma 3rd law is perhaps the most popular law, "Every action has an equal and opposite reaction."
How is blase pascal important to physics?
Pascal's work in Fluid Dynamics lead to the formulation of Pascal's Law. This a very important concept in the study of Fluid Dynamics (Hydraulics), and the design of devices that use Hydraulic Controls...such as Brakes in a automobile.
