NO!!! A proton does NOT circulate around the nucleus. It is part of the Nucleus.
Proton(s) together with neutron(s) form the nucleus of an atom; collectively known as 'nucleons'. Electrons circluate around the nucleus as clouds in energy shells.
With in the nucleus protons rotate within themselves. They are not static 'lumps' of charge.
As an analogy, think of the Solar System. The Sun is the nucleus, and the Sun is known to rotate. The planets are the electrons circulating the Sun and the planets are also known to rotate; think of Earth.

Where are proton neutrons electrons found on the nucleus?
Electrons are around the nucleus. Protons and neutrons are in the middle.
What is the proton electric charge and location in an atom?
Proton has uni-positive charge and is found within the nucleus
How is a hydrogen atom is different than a proton?
A hydrogen atom, H, is a proton (as nucleus) with one electron orbitting around it. A proton is just (the same as above) one proton, which lacks the electron: H+ .
Is it true or false Protons are located in the nucleus of the atom?
False. A proton is found inside the nucleus of an atom.
Is nuclear symbol for helium the same symbol for a proton?
No the hydrogen nucleus is a proton. The helium nucleus is an alpha particle.
A negatively charged subatomic particle that moves around the nucleus is a proton?
The negatively charged subatomic particle that moves around the nucleus is the electron. The proton, along with the neutron, comprises the nucleus.
Do proton move around the nucleus?
No, they spin within the nucleus.
Why does hydrogen need at least one proton in it's nucleus?
It is very simple. The hydrogen atom is composed of a nucleus with only one proton and an electron around the nucleus.
Is the proton located in the nucleus?
Yes, protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus, electrons are found around the nucleus
is a proton in the nucleus?
Yes. proton is present in the nucleus.
A subatomic particles that has a positive charge and tha is located in the nucleus of an atom.?
Proton has positive charge and is in nucleus of an atom. Neutron has zero charge and is also found in nucleus of an atom. Electron has negative charge and is found in cloud around the nucleus (electron cloud).
Where are proton neutrons electrons found on the nucleus?
Electrons are around the nucleus. Protons and neutrons are in the middle.
Does A proton has about the same mass as a nucleus?
No. A proton is part of the nucleus.
What is a particle with a positive charge moving around the nucleus of an atom?
a proton
Where in an atom can you find a proton?
in the nucleus, in the centre, with the neutrons.
What is an atom name that is made of a proton a neutron and an electron?
It is the atom of deuterium. Its nucleus is composed of a proton and one neutron. The atom has one electron that is orbiting around the nucleus.
Where are protons and electrons located in a hydrogen atom?
Proton is a component of the atomic nucleus; the electron move around the nucleus.
