Hi! Neutrons and Protons don`t revolve inside the atom they are actually present inside the nucleus and are together known as NUCLEONS. They have bonds between then and are stationary.

Atoms are really made up of smaller parts. There are three parts to an atom, they are electrons, neutrons and protons.
The center of the atom is called the nucleus. The nucleus is where 99.95% of the entire mass of an atom is. Inside the nucleus you find protons which are positively charged and neutrons which have no charge. There is one exception the hydrogen atom has no neutrons. the size of atomic nucleus is 100,000 times smaller than the diameter of an atom.
The electrons have a negative charge and revolve around the nucleus. They revolve in shells or areas that surround the center of the atom. They can spin in any direction as long as they spin in there shells. They occupy most of the space inside an atom.
Atoms are mostly empty space and energy.

Unlike electrons orbiting the atom, we can not distinguish between individual protons and neutrons inside the atom. In fact some models of the nucleus of the atom consider it a homogeneous blob of nuclear mater. So I guess the simplest answer is no the do not revolve.

No, only the electrons revolve around the stable proton and neutron inside the atom.

yes, inside the atom the protons & neutrons have spin. due to that the atom have total nuclear angularmomentem'F'.

Yes,they oscillate random within the nucleus all the time.

No, they do not revolve. they are stable and combine to form a nucleus.
