Java Programming

Create three classes for the words: An abstract class called Word, a class called Noun that inherits from Word, and a class called Verb that inherits from Word. The actual word is stored in class Word. The classes Noun and Verb should have different toString methods the return the word with either “(N)” or “(V)” appended. Create three classes for the linked list: An abstract class called WordList  which contains all the functionality of the linked list, and classes called UnsortedWordList and SortedWordList which inherit from WordList. Each of these two classes should have an insert method that adds a new word in the appropriate position in the list.  The GUI should now have two TextAreas: the one on left showing the contents of the unsorted list, and the one on the right showing the contents of the sorted list. The command window (ADD, DELETE, STOP) should function.  Create two menus for the GUI: One called File (with choices Open and Quit), and one called Display (with choices Nouns and Verbs).File > Open: open the selected file, fill the linked lists and display them in the text areas. File > Quit: exit the program.Display > Nouns: clear the text areas and then display only the nouns on the lists.Display > Verbs: clear the text areas and then display on the verbs on the list. The input file will be in the following format: one word per line followed by either N or V in parenthesis: apple(N) peach(N) eat(V) .

Energy is the lifeblood of a modern world

Energy is the lifeblood of a modern world. Energy powers our homes, our businesses, and our economy. However, energy is not free or easily acquired in many parts of the world. Most energy sources require extraction, transportation, and refinement before it is usable in our contemporary economies. Fortunately, we have two very important categories of energy, one non-renewable and one renewable. You are probably much more familiar with the non-renewable sources of energy that traditionally include oil, gas, and coal. These sources are very important but they are also problematic from many aspects to include environmental, economic, and health concerns. As a result, energy experts are now focused on new sources of energy from renewable sources that are less problematic, especially from an environmental aspect.Identify three different renewable energy sources to discuss. First, describe one economic, one political, and one environmental challenge associated with each energy source. Second, compare supply side and demand side issues related to each source. Third, describe one potential future economic, one political, and one environmental challenge for each source. Then, predict what has to happen in order to make renewable energy the major energy source for Americans in the next 50 years. Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length. Support your claims with examples from the required material(s) and/or other scholarly resources, and properly cite any references.

Response

Written Response 4 is an overview of Nora Eccles Harrison Museum of Art. You should write a personal response to your experience in the museum and the various shows and objects on display. You should identify a couple of pieces that you find particularly interesting and perhaps some that you think less successful.

Your paper will be graded on the following  criteria:1. A clear and cogent introductory paragraph that gives a very brief history of the museum.2. Demonstration of some application of ideas, issues, and/or methods of analysis from materials/discussions covered in class.( we take the kitsch art and water and art, meaning of muesm, music art)3. Writing that is clear and concise with accurate spelling and grammar.4. Personal opinions justified with clear supporting evidence.5. Meets minimum 500 word limit.
