concept: which way does and e- travel through a battery with a wire connected to both terminals

e- travel from postive to neg in a battery to increase its potentail energy. This movement causes thermal energy in a wire where potentil energy is lost and chemical energy to be the expense.

In a simple model of the hydrogen atom, the electron moves in a circular orbit of radius 0.053nm around a stationary proton.How many revolutions per second does the electron make? Hint: What must be true for a force that causes circular motion?
