MCQ
The adjoining figure shows a negatively charged electroscope. If a negatively charged rod is brought close to, but not touching, the knob, the two leaves will:
- AMove closer together
- ✓Move farther apart
- CNot move at all
- DNone of these
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
Move farther apart
In this case, the given electroscope is negatively charged. If a negatively charged rod is brought close to, but not touching, the knob, the two leaves will move far apart as the like charges repel each other.
