Water doesn't hang in an arc. The reflection back from the water that
happens to hit your eyes is from the drops that are in an arc-shaped
region of the body of water. The light gets reflected from all of the
drops but you can only see the reflections from an arc-shaped group.
People standing a few hundred yards ahead of you or behind you see the
light from a different arc.

Water hangs in the air without falling all the time, Mitch. They're
called clouds.

But we are not talking about clouds.

The idea that the back of falling raindrops will radiate in an arc
while falling won't work and I am pointing it out because it is
obvious.

Look up something nuts like that? Please you are making an excuse of
an explanation. The truth is there is no opposite charge in the
electric field.

I know that classical orbiting was only an analogy here, but it is
hard to get along without analogies.
I have since looked up the 'centrifugal barrier' on
http://www.tampa.phys.ucl.ac.uk/~sam/PHYS2B22/slides6.ppt which seems
a useful reference and I can read it with my new 'QM for Dummies'
text.
The quantised angular momentum is the cause: as the angular momentum
is quantised, decreasing the distance to the nucleus means
proportionally increasing the angular velocity, to keep the angular
momentum a constant. Which makes it ever harder to continue to
decrease the distance. It doesn't explain why angular momentum is
quantised though, but 'why' questions cannot always be answered.





I looked up centrifugal barrier.
