Chapter 4, Problem 10PC

Freezing and Boiling Points

The following table lists the freezing and boiling points of several substances in Fahrenheit:

Chapter 4, Problem 10PC, Freezing and Boiling Points The following table lists the freezing and boiling points of several

Design a class that stores a temperature in a temperature field and has the appropriate accessor and mutator methods for the field. The class should also have the following methods:

  • isEthylFreezing. This method should return the boolean value true if the temperature stored in the temperature field is at or below the freezing point of ethyl alcohol. Otherwise, the method should return false.
  • isEthylBoiling. This method should return the boolean value true if the temperature stored in the temperature field is at or above the boiling point of ethyl alcohol. Otherwise, the method should return false.
  • isOxygenFreezing. This method should return the boolean value true if the temperature stored in the temperature field is at or below the freezing point of oxygen. Otherwise, the method should return false.
  • isOxygenBoiling. This method should return the boolean value true if the temperature stored in the temperature field is at or above the boiling point of oxygen. Otherwise, the method should return false.
  • isWaterFreezing. This method should return the boolean value true if the temperature stored in the temperature field is at or below the freezing point of water. Otherwise, the method should return false.
  • isWaterBoiling. This method should return the boolean value if the temperature stored in the temperature field is at or above the boiling point of water. Otherwise, the method should return false.

 Write a program that demonstrates the class. The program should ask the user to enter a temperature, then display a list of the substances that will freeze at that temperature and those that will boil at that temperature. For example, if the temperature is -20, the class should report that water will freeze and oxygen will boil at that temperature.

Cargo Ships This question involves cargo ships that carry a specific number of cargo containers. Each ship has a maximum number of cargo containers that it can hold and a current number of cargo containers that it is holding. You can see more details in the Ship class that is provided for you. Part A For part A, you will be completing the nextToUnload() method. This takes no input and returns a Ship from the ships instance variable that has the highest percentage of its cargo hold filled (as measured by current hold / capacity). If two ships have the same percentage, then it should return the first ship with that percentage. If all of the ships in the ships array are empty (ie. no cargo), the method should return null. Part B For part B, you will complete the two unloadShip methods. The first method takes a Ship object and unloads all of the cargo from that ship. The second method takes a Ship and an int and unloads the specified number of containers from the ship. If the number of…
Create an automobile class that will be used by a dealership as a vehicle inventory program. The following attributes should be present in your automobile class: private string make private string model private string color private int year private int mileage Your program should have appropriate methods such as: default constructor parameterized constructor add a new vehicle  method list vehicle information (return string array) remove a vehicle method update vehicle attributes method. All methods should include try..catch constructs. Except as noted all methods should return a success or failure message (failure message defined in "catch"). Create an additional class to call your automobile class (e.g., Main or AutomobileInventory). Include a try..catch construct and print it to the console. Call automobile class with parameterized constructor (e.g., "make, model, color, year, mileage"). Then call the method to list the values. Loop through the array and print to the screen.…
Ag 1- Random Prime Generator Add a new method to the Primes class called genRandPrime. It should take as input two int values: 1owerBound and upperBound. It should return a random prime number in between TowerBound (inclusive) and upperBound (exclusive) values. Test the functionality inside the main method. Implementation steps: a) Start by adding the method header. Remember to start with public static keywords, then the return type, method name, formal parameter list in parenthesis, and open brace. The return type will be int. We will have two formal parameters, so separate those by a comma. b) Now, add the method body code that generates a random prime number in the specified range. The simplest way to do this is to just keep trying different random numbers in the range, until we get one that is a prime. So, generate a random int using: int randNum = lowerBound + gen.nextInt(upperBound); Then enter put a while loop that will keep going while randNum is not a prime number - you can…
