telo118 [61]

Answer:

The class GasTank is defined below

All the steps are briefed in comments

public class GasTank {

// instance variable initialization

private double amount = 0;

//declaring instance variable capacitance

private double capacity;

//constructor having parameter of type double

public GasTank(double i)

{

capacity = i;

}

// addGas method for increasing gas quantity.

public void addGas(double i)

//quantity of gas increased is added to the existing amount. If it becomes more than total capacity, amount is set to capacity

{ amount += i; if(amount > capacity) amount = capacity; / amount = amount < capacity ? amount+i : capacity;/ }

//useGas method having parameter of type double

public void useGas(double i)

//the parameter given is deducted from 0 and if results less than 0, remains equal to 0

{ amount = amount < 0 ? 0 : amount - i; }

//method isEmpty

public boolean isEmpty()

//Returns true if volume is less than 0.1 else false

{ return amount < 0.1 ? true : false; }

//method isFull

public boolean isFull()

//returns true if the value of amount is greater than  0.1 else false.

{ return amount > (capacity-0.1) ? true : false; }

//method getGasLeve

public double getGasLevel()

//Returns the value of amount instance variable

{ return amount; }

//method fillUp

public double fillUp()

//returns the difference between the capacity and the amount

{ double blah = capacity - amount; amount = capacity; return blah; }
