SECTION B (60 Marks)
(Attempt any four questions from this Section)
Question 4: [15 Marks]
Write a program to create a class named Employee. The class should have the following
instance variables:
emp_id (integer)
name (String)
monthly_salary (double)
The class should have the following methods:
void accept(): To accept the employee ID, name, and monthly salary from the user.
void calculate(): To calculate the annual salary (annual_salary = monthly_salary *
12).
void display(): To display the employee ID, name, monthly salary, and the calculated
annual salary in a proper format.
Create an object of the class in the main method and call the above methods in the correct
order.
Question 5: [15 Marks]
Write a program to create a class Circle with the following members:
Instance variable: radius of type double.
Methods:
o void getData(): To take the radius of the circle as input from the user.
o double area(): To calculate and return the area of the circle (πr²). Use Math.PI
for the value of π.
o double circumference(): To calculate and return the circumference of the circle
(2πr).
In the main method, create an object of the Circle class, call the getData() method. Then,
calculate and display the area and circumference by calling the respective methods.

Question 6: [15 Marks]
Write a program to input three numbers from the user and find the largest of the three
numbers using the ternary operator. Display the largest number.
Question 7: [15 Marks]
Write a program to create a class named Student with the following instance variables:
name (String)
marks1, marks2, marks3 (int)
The class should have the following methods:
void input(): To accept the name and marks in three subjects.
void compute(): To calculate the total marks and the average percentage.
void show(): To display the student's name, total marks, and average percentage.
Create an object of the Student class in the main method and call the methods to perform the
required operations.
Question 8: [15 Marks]
Write a program to input the principal amount (P), rate of interest (R), and time in years (T)
from the user. Calculate and display the Simple Interest.
Formula: Simple Interest = (P * R * T) / 100
Also, calculate and display the total amount to be paid (Principal + Simple Interest). All the
inputs and results should be of a suitable data type.
Question 9: [15 Marks]
Write a program that accepts a temperature in Celsius from the user and converts it into
Fahrenheit. Display the result.
Formula: F = (C * 9/5) + 32
Where F is the temperature in Fahrenheit and C is the temperature in Celsius. Ensure that the
division 9/5 is performed as a floating-point operation.
