Explanation of Solution

Calling a module:

  • A module does its task only when a module call is made.
  • Whenever a module is called, the interpreter jumps to the corresponding module definition and it executes the statements.
  • When the interpreter reaches the end of a module, it goes back to the statement that called the module. This is called as the module returns.

Argument:

  • Module call contains pieces of data, called as “arguments”.
    • The values of these arguments are used in calculations inside the module.
    • The module header receives an argument and it is assigned to the parameter variable...

Question 1 (15 Points) Inheritance: In this question, we are going to create a new subclass of the SimpleGeometricObject class, named Triangle. Create a SimpleGeometricObject.java and Copy the source code of the SimpleGeometricObject class from the following link: https://liveexample.pearsoncmg.com/html/SimpleGeometricObject.html TASK 1: Create a Triangle class that extends the SimpleGeometricObject class in Eclipse, following the below UML diagram. + base:double = 5 + height:double = 10 Triangle + Triangle() + Triangle(newBase: double, newHeight: double) + getArea(): double + setBase(): void + setHeight(): void + getBase(): double + getHeight(): double
Question 2 (10 Points): String vs. StringBuilder Create a Question2.java file and finish the following tasks: Task 1. a) Create a 1D array of integers to store 50 integers. b) Store values from 0 to 49 in the array you just created. c) Create a new String Object using no-arg constructor. d) Using for loop to add the array elements one by one to the String (one per loop iteration) Hint: to append an element to a String, use the + operator. e) Output the String on the console. Record and display a run-time it took to append all integers to the String (record run-time of 1.d.)). Please submit a screenshot. The screenshot should match the following example: 012345678910111213141516171819202122232425262728293031323334353637383940414243444546474849 it took 196708 nanoseconds to append 50 integers to the String.| Hint: You can use the following statements to record run-time. long begin, end, time; // we will measure time it took begin = System.nanoTime(); //we measure in nanoseconds. // put…
