C. Your friend is incorrect, at this point, the cannon ball just has potential energy.
Explanation:
Potential energy is the kind of energy that an object has due to its position.
The unit for energy in the International System of Units (SI) is the joule, which has the symbol J.
Potential energy is usually related to forces that act on a body in a way that the total work done by these forces on the body depends only on the initial and final positions of the body in space.
These forces, receive the name of conservative forces and can be represented at every point in space by vectors expressed as gradients of a certain scalar function called potential.
"Work ethos" is a compound expression built on the greek word "ethos" (referring to an idea of "habit" that often is ascribed to one's personal/moral tendencies).
With the adjective "work" preceding ethos, the expression refers to a person's work ethic (we can see how "ethic" comes from "ethos" visually in the spelling, too).
"Work ethos" is best understood by the more common (and synonymous) expression, "work ethic."
So a noun clause is a dependent clause that acts as a noun. Noun clauses begin with words such as how, that, what, whatever, when, where, whether, which, whichever, who, whoever, whom, whomever, and why. Noun clauses can act as subjects, direct objects, indirect objects, predicate nominatives, or objects of a preposition.
