Use the programs given to write a program, YI_BouncingBlock.java to make the block bounce when it reaches a all.
Homework:
1. Write a program, YI_MovingCar.java that animates a car so that it moves across a frame.
2. Write a program, YI_TwoMovingCars.java that animates two cars moving across a frame in opposite directions (but at different heights so that they don’t collide.)
