Actually, its more of a matter of why don't they fall into the nucleus and stop moving. You see, electrons are very chaotic particles that always move around because of the kinetic energy (kinetic energy is the energy of a moving object) they carry, and at a subatomic scale it is very difficult, and practically impossible, to "stop" a particle i.e. reduce its kinetic energy to zero. So you see, when electrons are bound by electrostatic forces to atomic nuclei, they can't fly away because of the attraction between the protons of the nucleus and them, but they also can't just stick to said nuclei because they still have kinetic energy which keeps them moving.
A simple analogy is spinning a string with a small stone tied to the opposing end. The stone spins around the opposite end of the string because it is bound to that point by the string, but it can't fall towards it because it has a lot of kinetic energy that's trying to make it fly away.
Hope this was useful.
As with magnets, there is an attraction between the nucleus of the atom and it's electrons.
Electron-gravity :) :) :) whoop whoop 14 year old answering, im am so smart :D
like charges repel, opposite charges attract. electrons have -ve charge whereas protons have +ve charge +ve and -ve attract.
Nothing. The electrons are not confined in the nucleus, they orbit around it at a considerable distance relative to the size of the nucleus.
The positively charged protons in the nucleus are what attract the negatively charged electrons.
The electrons are attracted to the positively charged protons in the atomic nucleus.
This is the electrical attraction.
Electrons revolve around the nucleus. A revolving electron is equivalent to a current loop. Hence, it produces a magnetic moment.
Electrons are the particles that move around the nucleus in constant and random motion.
The development of atomic models in chronological order is as follows: Atoms are solid spheres. Atoms have electrons attached to their surface. Electrons move around nucleus at specific energy levels. Rapid motion of electrons around nucleus in a cloud.
The short answer is the motion is completely deterministic, but not predictable in the everyday, macroscopic sense. The more accurately you try to measure momentum of the electron in transit, the less you will know about its position.
I would say a magnetic field. When an electron enters a magnetic field that is oriented perpendicular to its path of travel it causes the electron to loop in a circle. While the speed stays the same the velocity is constantly changing due to the circular motion. Hence same speed but undergoing an acceleration.
the inter nuclear force of attraction between the nucleus and electron keep it moving in a circular manner around the nucleus
Motion: Usually from the ambient matter in the form of heat. If the ambient matter is cooler than the atom, the motion will slow down, and if it's warmer, the electron will accelerate. Rotation: The electron is negatively charged and the nucleus is positively charged. Because of this, the electron is magnetically attracted to the nucleus, so the motion will be concentrated around it.
Around the atomic nucleus orbit electrons.
Due to Uniform Circular Motion.
Bohr proposed that an electron is found only in specific circular paths, or orbits, around the nucleus.

the centripetal force along with the attractive force of the electron on the nucleus are balanced by a phenomnon known as the strong nuclear force which prevents the electron from coliding with the nucleus
The term "electron cloud" was coined by an American physicist named Richard Feynman. The electron cloud model is a visual representation of the possible locations of electrons in an atom. It is known that electrons are found on orbitals around the nucleus and this model visually allows us to picture the probable locations of the electrons around the nucleus.
there is nothing called as an electric force...an electron revolves around a nucleus due to the electrostatic fore of attracion between the electron and the proton....any object , to undergo a circlar motion has to experience a centripetal force, which in the case of the atom is provided by the electrostatic force. Actually there is an electric force of attraction between the electron(s) and proton(S)
