[QUOTE="Of the Kingdom, post: 74995080, member: 414990"] You might be interested in this question on stack exchange: [URL="https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/20187/how-fast-do-electrons-travel-in-an-atomic-orbital"]How fast do electrons travel in an atomic orbital?[/URL] Although not a classical orbit, the motion can be approximated by one. An answer gives the computed velocity as 1/137 of c, or roughly proportional to that. Relativistic effects exist, but would not be dramatic. It would not be an inertial frame, but neither is the Earth. Both could be considered approximately inertial for some purposes. [/QUOTE]
