Why is a two-stage instruction pipeline unlikely to cut the instruction cycle time in half, compared with the use of no pipeline?

clock cycle at which the first of the instructions is fetched as clock cycle 1. Assume that if one instruction reads a register during the same clock cycle as another instruction is writing it, the new value will be read. Do not reorder the instructions. Instructions are fetched and executed exactly in the order given below, with the pipeline stalling if necessary.addi $s2, $s2, 1li $s6, 5add $s1, $s2, $s3move $s5, $s6lw $t1, 0($s5)

Suppose we had a processor design with 5 stages where each stage takes the following amount of time: IF: 400 ps ID: 200 ps EX: 300 ps MEM: 500 ps WB: 200 psQ1: If you choose a pipelined design, what is the CPI? Assume that we have enough instructions such that the brief ramp up period at the beginning and the ramp down period at the end with less than 100% utilization does not matter. Q2: If you choose a pipelined design, what is the average execution time per instruction in picoseconds?

How does pipelining impact the overall instruction execution time, and what is meant by pipeline efficiency?
