False. Subatomic particles such as protons, neutrons, and electrons are not stationary; they are in constant motion. Electrons, for example, occupy orbitals around the nucleus and are constantly moving. Protons and neutrons, while located in the nucleus, can also exhibit motion due to the forces acting on them.
