Quantum information states the electron does not orbit the nucleus but instead vibrates in some wave propagation, yet definitions of the number of electron orbits per second exist.. While certainly vibration and wave propagtion are factors, the cyclic motion of rotation and orbit must begin at atomic levels but where and is there a base value of reference? There are various measurements defined which should allow some calculation of this but the definitions when cross-compared are conflicting.
Electron orbits per second = about 6.5 trillion times per second
Speed of an electron in hydrogen = 220,000,000 cm per second
Hydrogen Radius = 5,292,000,000th of a centimeter.
Light travels radius of hydrogen atom = 10 to -18th power/second.
Light travels 1 foot (30.48 cm) = 1,000,000,000th of a second (ns)
By these definitions the electron orbit should be more per second than defined and the speed of light appears not constant in moving from the hydrogen atom outward to 1 foot.|||Interesting. What do you think?
