Charging by Contact – Conduction Electroscope: a device used to detect static charge electroscope charging

Charging by Contact – Conduction Electroscope: a device used to detect static charge -the electroscope is all metal insulated from the rest of the desk by a plastic collar

Charging by Contact – Conduction Electroscope: a device used to detect static charge -the electroscope is all metal insulated from the rest of the desk by a plastic collar -any charge added to the electroscope will spread out all through it

Charging by Contact – Conduction Electroscope: a device used to detect static charge -the electroscope is all metal insulated from the rest of the desk by a plastic collar -any charge added to the electroscope will spread out all through it -anytime the leaves get a charge, they have the same charge so they repel

Charging by Contact – Conduction Electroscope: a device used to detect static charge -the electroscope is all metal insulated from the rest of the desk by a plastic collar -any charge added to the electroscope will spread out all through it -anytime the leaves get a charge, they have the same charge so they repel -leaves apart indicate a static charge

Charging by Contact – Conduction Electroscope: a device used to detect static charge -charging with a negative object negative (4-) Before Contact neutral

Charging by Contact – Conduction Electroscope: a device used to detect static charge -charging with a negative object negative (1-) After Contact negative (3-)

Charging by Contact – Conduction Electroscope: a device used to detect static charge -charging with a negative object negative (1-) After Contact -leaves repel due to like charges negative (3-)

Charging by Contact – Conduction Electroscope: a device used to detect static charge -charging with a positive object positive (4+) Before Contact neutral

Charging by Contact – Conduction Electroscope: a device used to detect static charge -charging with a positive object positive (1+) After Contact positive (3+)

Charging by Contact – Conduction Electroscope: a device used to detect static charge -charging with a positive object positive (1+) After Contact -leaves repel due to like charges positive (3+)
