If a postivively charged rod is brought near the knob of a positively charged electroscope the leaves of the electroscope will?
separate further
An electroscope has been charged by induction with the help of a charged glass rod the charge on the electroscope will be?
negative
How the charges on the body may be determined by using an electroscope?
when a substance is electrically charged it has either too few or too many electrons. when the electroscope is brought near a charged object the electrons 'jump' if the substance had too many electrons then the extras would 'jump' to the electroscope giving it a negative charge if the substance had too few electrons then the electrons from the electroscpe would 'jump' to the substance, giving the electroscope a positive charge
How can gold leaf electroscope be used to detect an electric charge?
In order to identify the charge of a body we should use a charged electroscope. Let us say the electroscope is negatively charged. Now bring the unknown charged body 'X' near the cap of the electroscope. If the leaves diverge more the charge in 'X' must be negative. Suppose that the leaves close a little when 'X' is brought near 'C', then 'X' may have a positive charge or it may not have any charge. In order to confirm the positive charge you must bring the rod 'X' near the cap of a positively charged electroscope. If the leaves diverge more, then 'X' has positive charge.
What happens to the leaves of an electroscope that is not charged?
They hang limp.

Attraction and repulsion?
Attraction and repulsion, in physics means, is when two objects attract and repel one another. For example, an When a negatively charged rod is brought near an electroscope with negatively charged leaves, the leaves will repel. Same goes for when a positively charged rod is brought near an electroscope with positively charged leaves, the leaves will repel. But if a negatively charged rod is brought near an electroscope with positively charged leaves, the leaves will attract. Kind of like opposites attract, and likeness repels.

What devise can you use to see if something is charged?
It is an electroscope. If you lightly touch the object to the electroscope, it either sticks it together or pops it apart if it is charged.
