Abstract

In this paper we discussed the behavior of a hydrogen atom in moving and found there is a speed threshold for hydrogen atom. As long as the speed of hydrogen reaches or beyond its speed threshold, the proton and electron in hydrogen atom will fly apart. We also discussed the effect of the movement of hydrogen atom on its absorption spectrum which is important in spectrum analysis.
