in an atom, energies of each orbit is quantized i.e they can hv only certain amt of energies & not any arbitrary amt of energy. so, in an atom of 1 electron, the first orbit can hv only a certain amt of energy(i cant recall the xact amt). it can only bump into the nucleus if it has lower energy than that which is not possible cos of above reasons. i hope it makes sense!!!

Men have been taught that it is a virtue to agree with others. But the creator is the man who disagrees. Men have been taught that it is a virtue to swim with the current. But the creator is the man who goes against the current. Men have been taught that it is a virtue to stand together. But the creator is the man who stands alone.
