| 11. | Electroscope Inc ., Boulder, Colo ., an initial public offering of 1.2 million shares.
|
| 12. | The best way to find an answer to your question is to do some experiments with a real electroscope.
|
| 13. | The rod is indeed part of one of the two plates on a gold leaf electroscope's capacitor.
|
| 14. | This type of electroscope usually acts as an indicator and not a measuring device, although it can be calibrated.
|
| 15. | This method can be demonstrated using a gold-leaf electroscope, which is an instrument for detecting electric charge.
|
| 16. | This effect was first discovered by Alessandro Volta, and can be measured using a capacitance electroscope comprising different metals.
|
| 17. | The electroscope is first discharged, and a charged object is then brought close to the instrument's top terminal.
|
| 18. | A simpler but related instrument, the electroscope, works on similar principles but only indicates the relative magnitudes of voltages or charges.
|
| 19. | In 1748, Nollet invented one of the first electrometers, the electroscope, which showed electric charge using electrostatic attraction and repulsion.
|
| 20. | Moving a charged object toward the electroscope's rod is equivalent to adding ( or removing ) a plate from a charged capacitor.
