is this accurate? I am pretty sure this model of an electron orbiting around the nucleus is an outdated model and the electrons is rather probabilisticly chiling in a “cloud” of probable points near the nucleus
I made the 1 minute TH-cam video very simplistic. The electron racing in an orbit at 600 miles per second (900 kilometer a second) is unimaginable at the tiny tiny tiny volume of an atom. I need to do another on how the nucleons' (protons and neutrons) respond to their confinement with even higher velocities, and since they are squeezed into a much smaller volume than the electron their reaction is all the more "solid". They race around in the nucleus with velocities of around 40,000 miles per second (64,000 kilometers per second).
Verbose AF it’s science not poetry
Thank you. If I can get a little science into poetry I am happy.
