Freezing and Boiling Points

The following table lists the freezing and boiling points of several substances.

Substance Freezing Point Boiling Point
Ethyl alcohol -173 172
Oxygen -362 -306
Water 32 212

Design a class that stores a temperature in a temperature member variable and has the appropriate accessor and mutator functions. In addition to appropriate constructors, the class should have the following member functions:

• isEthylFreezing—This function should return the bool value true if the temperature stored in the temperature field is at or below the freezing point of ethyl alcohol. Otherwise, the function should return false.

• isEthyl Boi1ing—This function should return the bool value true if the temperature stored in the temperature field is at or above the boiling point of ethyl alcohol. Otherwise, the function should return false.

• isOxygenFreezing—This function should return the bool value true if the temperature stored in the temperature field is at or below the freezing point of oxygen. Otherwise, the function should return false.

• isOxygenBoi1ing—This function should return the bool value true if the temperature stored in the temperature field is at or above the boiling point of oxygen. Otherwise, the function should return false.

• isWaterFreezing—This function should return the bool value true if the temperature stored in the temperature field is at or below the freezing point of water. Otherwise, the function should return false.

• isWaterBoiling—This function should return the bool value true if the temperature stored in the temperature field is at or above the boiling point of water. Otherwise, the function 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.

Circle Class (Easy)   Write a Circle class that has the following member variables: radius : a  double    The class should have the following member functions:    Default Constructor:  default constructor that sets radius to 0.0.  Constructor: accepts the radius of the circle as an argument.  setRadius: an mutator function for the radius variable. getRadius: an accessor function for the radius variable. getArea: returns the area of the circle, which is calculated as area = pi * radius * radius    getCircumference: returns the circumference of the circle, which is calculated as circumference = 2 * pi * radius         Step1:  Create a declaration of the class.   Step2: Write a program that demonstrates the Circle class by asking the user for the circle’s radius, creating              Circle objects, and then reporting the circle’s area, and circumference.                You should create at least two circle objects, one sets the radius to 0.0 and one accepts the radius as an…
Design an Account class used to represent an individual’s declining balance gift card.  It contains a string for the account number, and a float value for the balance.  It should include the following 7 functions: a 2-argument constructor (it accepts an account number and initial balance). a set function, one for each attribute (2 total functions, setAccount and setBalance.  Each assigns an argument value to the named member variable. a get function for each attribute (2 total functions, getAccount, and getBalance). Each returns the value stored in the named member variable. a function to display the account’s information to the screen.  The account number and balance value should be labelled. a function withdraw that takes a float argument and subtracts it from the balance.   Write the class declaration.  Member variables should NOT be accessible outside the class!  Member functions should be accessible outside the class! Write the member function definitions for only the following…
Complete the Appointment class. The class should have the following instance variables, constructors) and instance methods: 1. A properlv encapsulated String instance variable named personName 2. A properly encapsulated String instance variable named day. 3. A properly encapsulated double instance variable named duration 4. A default(no-arg) constructor that sets the per sonName instance variable to "Your Boss", day instance variable to "Monday" and duration instance variable to 1.5. 1. An overloaded constructor that takes two String parameters and one double parameter and sets the instance variables to the values passed in. 2. A getter and setter method for each instance variable. .A method named printAppointment, the method returns a String which contains the concatenation of the instance variables as shown in the sample output
