program then outputs the surface area and volume. (5 Marks)
c) Create a Circle class and test it. The class Circle has exactly one data member radius.
Your class must provide getRadius(), setRadius(), and toString() methods. There are
two application specific methods: getArea() and getCircumference(). Use Math.PI, a
constant defined in Math class in your code for the value of PI. (5 Marks)
d) Mark the following statements true or false. (5 Marks)
i. A static method has no explicit parameter.
ii. A static method must be invoked using the class name.
iii. Only a static method can modify a class variable.

QUESTION FIVE (20 MARKS)
a) Writer a program that displays employee IDs and first and last names of employees. Use
two classes. The first class named Emp contains the employee data and separate
methods to set the IDs and names. The other class creates objects for the employees and
uses the objects to call the set methods. Create several employees and display their data.
