Question

how would you convert a copper plate kept in an electroscope into an arrangement for storing charge for a long time,through induction? pls answer the question with the help of a diagram​

Answer 1

In order to convert a copper plate kept in an electroscope into an arrangement for storing charge for a long time, through induction is explained as follows:

• Consider the attached figure for the diagram.
• We need to make some arrangements first.
• First place the copper sheet around the gold leaves placed in an electroscope.
• A charged body must be bought in contact with the above arrangement.
• Opposite charges get generated on the gold leaves, and the opposite charges get formed on the inner and the outer surface of the copper sheet.
• At this point, the copper sheet should be earthed.
• Finally, the charges on the outer surface of the copper sheet get disappeared.
