Exploring Nucleus Speed: How Fast Do Elements Spin in Their Designated Space?

[Rotating Wave]

How did you find PF?

Searched for "physics forum" on Google

I am looking for information on multiple things but, currently, looking for how fast each element's nucleus spins/moves in its "designated space". Does the nucleus itself rotate? If so, how fast? And is it different for different element's?
(I'm not sure I'm doing this correctly. I just need to know this)

Welcome to PhysicsForums!

Technical questions go in the technical forums. This forum here is just for brief introductions. One of the sub-forums under the Physics section would be the best place to post your question.

It would help when you start the new thread if you post links to the reading you have been doing so far. It sounds like that reading has been about pretty simplified (old) models of atoms, so it would help others to address your questions if they could see your reading to provide corrections at the appropriate level. It would also help if you posted your educational background, since that helps others to tailor their responses to help you understand them the best.

My apologies. I'm still trying to figure out this site. But, I don't have reading material for this. I wonder a lot at a lot of things.
My educational background is high school. No formal science training/instruction, but I have self-studied many areas of physics. I hypothesize a lot, and so I came here hoping to get information that would help take my hypotheses to a level where they can be tested.
My apologies for the posting in the wrong spot. Thank you for the correction.

No need to apologize at all. You should find the PhysicsForums website a great resource.

Start a new thread in the Atomic Physics forum: https://www.physicsforums.com/forums/atomic-and-condensed-matter.64/

When you start it, mark the thread with the "B" prefix to show that you want to discuss it at the Basic level. You might also do some basic reading at Wikipedia as preparation for the discussion:

Thank you so much! I was looking for where to go!
