The atomic structures of elements heavier than helium are like helium's-a nuclear core of protons held together and neutralized by fewer electrons and the difference between protons and nuclear electrons made up by an equal number of electrons in one or more enveloping orbits. To understand how the speed of an atom's orbital electrons might be measured, take the illustration of a ball bounced against a figure on a moving merry-go-round...
