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.

Please you are making an excuse of an explanation. The truth is there is no opposite charge in the electric field.

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. |
