for the case of this argument let us assume that the model of the atom is similar to the model of our solar system. (yes I know that it doesn't work like that especially since the electron doesn't orbit around the nucleus in a classical sense, but please follow me any way you might learn...
Ok guys, I didn't post this thread to discuss views on how appropriate the uncertainty principal is or not. I posted this thread because when I asked my physics prof. these certain questions he responded by telling me he had no clue. So I figured that I should go some place where I could get...
my concern was not with the electron but with the proton / nucleus. However, you have brought up an interesting view. If the electron by itself can not emit em radiation then nor should the nucleus of an atom. This does bring up a different question, why doesn't a electron emit em radiation?
Hello,
I'm quite new to the concepts of quantum theory. So as such I have an interesting quandary. Keep in mind that I don't have as much back ground in study of physics as the lot of you but I will try my best to explain my dilemma.
Given
1)Both the electron and nucleus have a charge and...
