Abstraction lets you focus on what the object does instead of how it does it while Encapsulation means hiding the internal details or mechanics of how an object does something. 4.For example: Outer Look of a Television, like it has a display screen and channel buttons to change channel it explains Abstraction but Inner Implementation detail of a Television how CRT and Display Screen are connect with each other using different circuits , it explains Encapsulation. | ||||

Ans. Runnable - waiting for its turn to be picked for execution by the thread schedular based on thread priorities. Running - The processor is actively executing the thread code. It runs until it becomes blocked, or voluntarily gives up its turn. Waiting: A thread is in a blocked state while it waits for some external processing such as file I/O to finish. Sleeping - Java threads are forcibly put to sleep (suspended) with Thread.sleep. they can resume using Thread.resume method. Blocked on I/O - Will move to runnable after I/O condition like reading bytes of data etc changes. Blocked on synchronization - Will move to Runnable when a lock is acquired. Dead - The thread is finished working. | ||||
