Question

draw a labelled diagram of a gold leaf electroscope . describe how you will use it to detect a charge , measure p charge and find the nature of that charge

Answer 1

I can tell you how electroscope detect the charge
an electroscope is a device used to dedicate the presence of electric charge and to dedicate that type of charges of object and quality of charge present on the charged object
if a charged body is brought in contact with the electroscope the leaves diverge after getting charged even if the charge body is move away from the electroscope it remains charged and the leaf remains diverge
if an uncharged body is brought in contact with the letter of scope no repulsion is observed between it leaves thurs you can see how electrical charge can be transferred from the charged body to another through a metal conductor

Answer 2

Answer:

The electroscope is an early scientific instrument used to detect the presence of electric charge on a body. It detects charge by the movement of a test object due to the Coulomb electrostatic force on it. The amount of charge on an object is proportional to its voltage.
