What are the uses for an electroscope?
The electroscope is an instrument for detecting an electric charge by measuring mechanical forces between two charged bodies.
What can an electroscope determine?
An electroscope would detect an electrical charge.
Principle of electroscope and types of electroscope?
Like charges repel and unlike charges attract each other this is the fundamental principle used in an electroscope to detect presence and amount of charge. There are mainly 2 tpes of electroscopes pith ball electroscope and gold leaf electroscope
If you grounded the electroscope what does that do to the leaves of your electroscope?
...Guys...This is the answer of question...it simple! If we grounded the electroscope..whatever the charge on leaves are, positive or negative (as it depends with which charge you electrolyse the electroscope), if its positive and ground is negative (attraction) or if same + + so repultion
If the leaves of an electroscope spread apart it indicates that?
It indicates that the leaves of the electroscope have received a charge.

What are some uses for gold leaf?
A gold leaf electroscope is used to detect charges on a body
Name the kind of electroscope that can recognized to be charged just by observation?
Type your answer here... electroscope switch electroscope square
What type of instrument can detect the presence of an electrical charge?
a gold leaf electroscope. if initially charged negatively, the deflection of the leaf with respect to the electroscope is increased if a negatively charged object approaches the electroscope. conversely if a positively charged object approaches, the deflection is reduced. the angle of deflection is proportional to the magnitude of the charge.
What can an electroscope determine?
An electroscope would detect an electrical charge.
What are the types of electroscopes?
The different types of electroscopes are - i. Pith ball electroscope ii.Gold leaf electroscope iii. Needle electroscope

It indicates that the leaves of the electroscope have received a charge.
Can you give me a sentence for the word electroscope?
An electroscope is an instrument for detecting the presence of static electricity.
An electroscope has been charged by induction with the help of a charged glass rod the charge on the electroscope will be?
negative
Can you tell if a object has a positive or negative charge with a electroscope?
The electroscope can't distinguish the two cases.
