In an electroscope,

Question:

In an electroscope, if a negatively charged body is brought in contact with the metal dip, the strips of the electroscope diverge. If now another charged

object carrying equal amount of positive charge is brought in contact with the clip, what will happen?

Solution:

If a positively charged object is brought in contact with the metal clip of an electroscope, the negative charge given earlier to the clip will be

neutralised and the diverged strips will contract.
