Simple Electroscope

When the electroscope is charged by touching it with a charged object, this is called ____.

• charging by conduction

• charging by induction

• energizing

• grounding

When the electroscope is charged (temporarily) by bringing a charged object near, this is called ____.

• charging by conduction

• charging by induction

• energizing

• grounding

When the charge on the electroscope is removed by touching it, this is called ____.

• charging by conduction

• charging by induction

• energizing

• grounding

If the electroscope was charged negatively, how does this remove the charge from the electroscope?

• Electrons move from the hand to the electroscope

• Protons move from the hand to the electroscope

• Electrons move from the electroscope to the hand

• Protons move from the electroscope to the hand

A negatively charged rod is brought near a neutral electroscope, what happens in the electroscope?

• Electrons move from the plate to the vein to make the vein negatively charged.

• Protons move from the plate to the vein to make the vein positively charged.

• Electrons move from the vein to the plate to make the vein positively charged.

• Protons move from the vein to the plate to make the vein negatively charged.
