Two identical conducting spheres carrying different charges attract each other with a force F when placed in air medium at a distance d apart. The spheres are brought into contact and then taken to their original positions. Now the two spheres repel each other with a force whose magnitude is equal to that of the initial attractive force. The ratio between initial charges on the spheres is

I learnt this in atoms and molecules chapter "Two protons will also tend to repel each other because they both have a positive charge. On the other hand, electrons and protons will be attracted to each other because of their unlike charges."but I have a doubt, that is, if protons can attract electrons,then why electrons in the atom is revolving around the protons and not attracting it.
