The gold leaf electroscope is an historic instrument whose leaves diverge when it is charged.
Something went wrong, please try again later.
Once a staple part of the Physics syllabus there is a lot you can learn from a Gold leaf electroscope if you still have them in school! remember rubbing PolytheNE produces a negative charge which is then used to charge the electroscope positively (by earthing) . Worth investigating if you have any of these and remember the hair drier on the equipment for better effects!
