Creates and returns a copy of this object.
2) boolean equals(Object obj)
Indicates whether some other object is "equal to"
this one.

Called by the garbage collector on an object when
garbage collection determines that there are no more
references to the object.
4)Class<? extends Object> getClass()
Returns the runtime class of an object.
5) int hashCode()
Returns a hash code value for the object.
6)void notify()
Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this
object's monitor.
7) void notifyAll()
Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this
object's monitor.
8) String toString()
Returns a string representation of the object.
9)void wait()
Causes current thread to wait until another thread
invokes the notify() method or the notifyAll() method for
this object.
10)void wait(long timeout)

thread invokes the notify() method or the notifyAll() method
for this object, or a specified amount of time has elapsed.
