I'm not sure what "60 degree horizontal" means.

I'm going to assume that it means a direction aimed 60 degrees
above the horizon and 30 degrees below the zenith. 

Now, I'll answer the question that I have invented.

When the shot is fired with speed of 'S' in that direction,
the horizontal component of its velocity is    S cos(60)  =  0.5 S ,
and the vertical component is   S sin(60) = S√3/2  =  0.866 S .  (rounded)

-- 0.75 of its kinetic energy is due to its vertical velocity.
That much of its KE gets used up by climbing against gravity.

-- 0.25 of its kinetic energy is due to its horizontal velocity.
That doesn't change. 

-- So at the top of its trajectory, its KE is 0.25 of what it had originally. 

That's  E/4 .

Electricity is the movement of _____ from one atom to another along a conductor.
prohojiy [21]

The sentence can be completed as follows:

"Electricity is the movement of charges from one atom to another along a conductor."


The movement of the the charges is due to the presence of a potential difference across the conductor, which pushes the charges. More specifically, in normal conductors, the carriers of electricity are the electrons. Therefore we can rewrite the sentence as

"Electricity is the movement of electrons from one atom to another along a conductor."

Where is the fulcrum of a broom?
algol [13]

It's one of your hands.  Which one it is depends on how you sweep.

-- If you hold the top of the stick motionless and wave your bottom hand
back and forth, then your top hand is the fulcrum, and you're using the
broom as a Class-3 lever.

-- If you hold your bottom hand motionless and wiggle the top end of the
broom back and forth with your top hand, then your lower hand is the fulcrum,
and you're using the broom as a Class-1 lever.
