the nucleus of an atom has protons and neutrons, and electrons spin in orbitals around the nucleus. since opposites attract, electrons are pulled towards the protons in the nucleus, but their spin-velocity is like planets in a solar system: they keep approximately the same distance from the sun, even though the sun's gravitational pull is extremely strong.
