Java canvas doesn't update at all

I'm trying to make a Brick Breaker game where the ball which is initially on the paddle(referred to as BAR in the code below) is launched with a speed(approx 100) in some random direction, if it hits any brick on the screen the brick disappears and the ball changes direction accordingly.

Here the update function doesn't seem to update at all.
I'm not really sure on how the method works as well.
Any help would be appreciated

Canvas is a pretty low level component and one which I'd only consider using if I needed to use a BufferStrategy.
update is called as part of the paint phase and because you've overridden it without calling it's super implementation, you broke the paint workflow.
AWT and Swing generally employ a passive rendering system, this means that updates only occur when the system decides it needs to happen, so overriding update the way you have doesn't really make sense and isn't going to help you.
A better place to start is with a JPanel, the main reason is because it's double buffered and saves you hassles of trying to figure out how to eliminate flickering.
A good place to start is Performing Custom Painting and Painting in AWT and Swing to gain a better understanding of how painting works (and how you should work with it).
KeyListener is also a poor choice for input monitoring, seriously, just do some searching on SO for all the reasons why.
A better, and generally less problematic approach is to use key bindings as well.

I've messed with delta values, because the ball and bar disappeared real quick

Why is my JFrame blank in my breakout game?

So I'm new at java and need some help with my breakout game. My JFrame is just blank and i don't know how to fix it?
So I have a ball class, paddle class, canvas class and a brick class as well as a main class. In my canvas class I set all functions the ball, paddle and bricks has etc. In brick class I draw the bricks. And in my main I do the JFrame but it's blank
Main class :
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args){
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
Canvas c = new Canvas();
frame.add(c);
frame.pack();
frame.setResizable(false);
frame.setVisible(true);
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
}
}
I expect the JFrame to show the game instead of just blank window

Preparing an MCVE, as required in SO, not only it makes helping much easier.
In many case, while preparing one, you are likely to find the problem, so it is a good debugging tool.
To answer "why is my JFrame blank ?" you could create the minimal code example like the following (copy-paste the entire code into GameBoard.java and run):

This produces the following result, which I believe can serve as the basis of what you wanted to achieve:
Now start adding the missing functionality and see what breaks it.

How to add an extra control point to a Bezier curve?

Here is the code which creates the bezier curve with total 4 control points:
Blue color is the starting and end control point.
Cyan color is the second and third control point.
I want to add a control point to the existing curve so that now I have 3 cyan coloured control points so that I can resize the curve(like dragging the curve) from any of these 3 control points instead of the 2 control points. What needs to be done for this?

I am working on making a Flappy bird game and I am stuck on how to make and display a timer that updates every second onto the screen
How do I make it start as the game starts and end as the game over pops up?

There are a few ways you might achieve what you're asking. The important thing to remember is, any solution is going to have a degree of drift, meaning that it's unlikely to absolutely accurate, the degree of drift will depend on a lot of factors, so just beware.
You could use a Swing Timer
It's among the safest means for updating the UI on a regular basis, it's also useful if your main loop is already based on a Swing Timer
See How to Use Swing Timers for more details
You could...
Maintain some kind of counter within in your main loop. This assumes that you're using a separate thread (although you can do the same thing with a Swing Timer) and are simply looping at some consistent rate
long tick = System.nanoTime();
long lastUpdate = -1;
while (true) {
long diff = System.nanoTime() - tick;
long seconds = TimeUnit.SECONDS.convert(diff, TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS);
if (seconds != lastUpdate) {
lastUpdate = seconds;
updateTimerLabel(seconds);
}
Thread.sleep(100);
}
This basically runs a while-loop, which calculates the difference between a given point in time (tick) and now, if it's a "second" difference, it then updates the UI (rather than constantly updating the UI with the same value)
The updateTimerLabel method basically updates the label with the specified time, but does so in a manner which is thread safe
protected void updateTimerLabel(long seconds) {
if (EventQueue.isDispatchThread()) {
timerLabel.setText(Long.toString(seconds));
} else {
EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
updateTimerLabel(seconds);
}
});
}
}

To make and display a timer that updates every second, Put this code in your main class:
private Timer timer = new Timer();
private JLabel timeLabel = new JLabel(" ", JLabel.CENTER);
timer.schedule(new UpdateUITask(), 0, 1000);
private class UpdateUITask extends TimerTask {
int nSeconds = 0;
#Override
public void run() {
EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
timeLabel.setText(String.valueOf(nSeconds++));
}
});
}
}

Make circles randomly dis/appear & change color using Swing Timer

So I'm making a game where you jump on rocks and you must not jump on rock which is covered by water. I'm stuck at the part where rocks (circles) randomly disappear in water and randomly appear and around 1.5 seconds before they disappear make it change color. I think its best to use javax.swing.Timer.
Could you help me achieve that?

Based on you code, a Swing Timer isn't what you want. You already have a "game/main" loop which should be updating the current state of the game on each cycle and rendering it, you simply need to devise a means by which you can create a "rock", with a given life span, each time it's rendered, it needs to check if it's life span is nearly over and have it removed when it dies.
The rock is really just another entity in your game, which can be updated and rendered.
