Q1. What happens when you call a function using the new keyword?
Ans. 
Calling a function using the new keyword creates a new instance of the function's constructor.
• Creates a new empty object

• Binds 'this' to the new object

• Adds a property to the new object called '__proto__' which points to the constructor function's prototype object

• Returns the new object
