What will be the output of this program? Java class TestThread extends Thread { public void run() { try { Thread.sleep(1000); System.out.println("Thread Running"); } catch (InterruptedException e) { System.out.println("Interrupted"); } } public static void main(String[] args) { TestThread t = new TestThread(); t.start(); t.interrupt(); } }

Both A and B, depending on timing

Question 1

Which method is used to set the name of a thread in Java?

A
setName()
B
setThreadName()
C
setThread()
D
assignName()

Question 2

What will be the output of the following code?

Java

class MyThread extends Thread {
    public void run() {
        System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName());
    }
    
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        MyThread t1 = new MyThread();
        t1.setName("CustomThread");
        t1.start();
    }
}

A
Thread-0
B
MyThread
C
CustomThread
D
Compilation Error

Question 3

What is the key difference between start() and run() in Java threads?

A
start() creates a new thread, but run() executes in the current thread
B
Both methods create a new thread
C
run() is an internal method that should not be called
D
start() directly calls run() without creating a new thread

Question 4

What will happen if start() is called twice on the same thread?

A
The thread runs twice
B
A new thread is created each time
C
It throws an IllegalThreadStateException
D
It runs normally without any issues

Question 5

What is the effect of Thread.sleep(5000) inside a thread?

A
The thread is terminated
B
The thread is paused for 5 seconds but remains in the RUNNABLE state
C
The thread is paused for 5 seconds and enters the TIMED_WAITING state
D
The thread releases its lock and resumes immediately

Question 6

What will be the output of this program?

Java

class TestThread extends Thread {
    public void run() {
        try {
            Thread.sleep(1000);
            System.out.println("Thread Running");
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            System.out.println("Interrupted");
        }
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        TestThread t = new TestThread();
        t.start();
        t.interrupt();
    }
}

A
Thread Running
B
Interrupted
C
No Output
D
Both A and B, depending on timing

Question 7

Which of the following is true about a daemon thread in Java?

A
A daemon thread runs in the background and stops when all user threads finish execution
B
A daemon thread continues running even if all user threads finish
C
A daemon thread must be manually stopped
D
The JVM waits for daemon threads to finish before terminating

Question 8

What happens when setDaemon(true) is called after start()?

A
The thread becomes a daemon thread
B
Compilation error
C
Runtime exception (IllegalThreadStateException)
D
No effect

Question 9

How can you check if a thread is a daemon thread?

A
Using isDaemon() method
B
Using isDaemonThread() method
C
Using isBackgroundThread() method
D
Using getThreadType() method

Question 10

Which of the following correctly creates and starts a daemon thread?

Java

Thread t = new Thread(() -> System.out.println("Daemon Running"));
t.start();
t.setDaemon(true);

Java

Thread t = new Thread(() -> System.out.println("Daemon Running"));
t.setDaemon(true);
t.start();

Java

Thread t = new Thread(() -> System.out.println("Daemon Running"));
t.setDaemon(false);
t.start();

D
None of the above
