Heat from the sun travels in the form of rays and are called as heat rays. This heat is called as radiation.

A Product Roadmap is a plan that matches short-term and long-term business goals with specific technology solutions to help meet those goals. It is a high-level visual summary that maps out the vision and direction of your product offering over time.

1. A product roadmap communicates the why and what behind what you're building.

2. It's a guiding strategic document as well as a plan for executing the strategy.

3. Roadmapping is the exercise of building a product roadmap. Roadmaps can apply to new products or services or existing offerings.

Farming in the early New England colonies was challenging because unfamiliar weather and soil conditions affected cultivation.

Polarity :: 

The polarity of a molecule defines its other physical properties such as melting point, boiling point, surface tension, vapor pressure etc... Simply, polarity occurs when the electron distribution in a molecule is asymmetric. This results in a net dipole moment in the molecule. One end of the molecule is charged negative while the other gets a positive charge.

The polarization of a molecule greatly depends on the shape of the molecule. A diatomic molecule like HF mentioned above has no issue of shape. The net dipole moment is only due to the uneven distribution of electrons between the two atoms. However, when there are more than two atoms involved in making a bond, there are many complexities.

The water molecule is of bent shape. Therefore, when the two pair of electrons shared by oxygen with two hydrogen atoms is pulled towards oxygen, the net dipole moment results in the direction of the oxygen atom. There is no other force to cancel out the resultant dipole moment. Hence, the water molecule is highly polar.

Ammonia molecule is of a pyramid shape and the electronegative N atom pulls the electrons towards itself. The three N-H bonds are not in the same plane; hence the dipole moments created do not get canceled out. This makes ammonia a polar molecule.

However, the dipole moments sometimes get canceled due to the shape of the molecules, making the molecule non-polar. Carbon dioxide is such a molecule.

Anything larger and the computer would need to break the number into smaller pieces.

16-bit is a computer hardware device or software program capable of transferring 16 bits of data at a time.

Today, 16-bit hardware and software has been replaced by 32-bit and 64-bit alternatives, which give the computer more memory to work with; increasing overall performance.

For example, early computer processors (e.g., 8088 and 80286) were 16-bit processors, meaning they were capable of working with 16-bit binary numbers (decimal number up to 65,535).
