You however couldnot be expected to know the sign of the charge and must therefore be given that information for two combinations (ie. rubbing a glassrod with silk resulted in a net positive charge on the glass rod while rubbing plastic rod with wool resulted in a net charge on the plasticrod). From those facts you were able to determine the sign of charge on an unknown, when using a charged electroscope.Draw a positively charged electroscope below and clearly indicate the position of the leave(s).Positively Charged:a)b)c)Neutral:Draw the charge distribution on the positively charged electroscope above.Now consider a highly charged rod being held close to the electroscope and indicate in a diagram the distribution of the chargeon the electroscope if the leaves end up separating by about 45degrees.

In 1910 Rutherford performed a classic experiment in which he directed a beam of alpha particles at a thin gold foil. He unexpectedly observed a few of the particles scattered almost directly backward. This result was not consistent with then current models of atomic structure and led Rutherford to propose the existence of a very dense concentration of positive charge at the center of an atom—the atomic nucleus. The alpha particle has a charge of +2e and the gold nucleus a charge of +79e. Suppose that an alpha particle is initially a great distance from the gold, has a kinetic energy of 2.31 MeV (2.31 106 eV), and is headed directly at a gold nucleus. How close will the particle come to the center of the nucleus? Treat the nucleus and the alpha particle as point charges.
A negative point charge of magnitude q is located on the y-axis at the point y=+a, and a positive charge of the same magnitude is located at y=-a. A third charge that is positive and of the same magnitude q is located at some point on the x-axis. Using Coulomb’s law what are the magnitude and direction of the net force exerted on the third charge when it is at the origin?

A plastic rod acquires a negative charge after being rubbed with fur. Which of the following statements is not true about the charge of the fur. The fur acquires a positive charge but greater in magnitude than the rod. After rubbing against the plastic rod, the fur contains more positive charges (protons) than negative charges (electrons). The fur acquires a net positive charge because electrons are transferred from the fur to the plastic rod. The fur acquires a positive charge that is equal in magnitude to the negative charge on the plastic rod.

When you rub a glass rod with silk you electrically charge the glass rod (and the silk). Likewise, when you rub a plastic rod with fur you electrically charge the plastic rod (and the fur). However, when you place the charged rods near each other you notice that they attract. What can you conclude about the sign of the charge on each? Can you determine just from this experiment the sign of the charge on each rod? Yes, they have equal charges, either positive or negative. Yes, the have opposite charges, the glass rod is negative and the plastic rod is positive. Yes, the have opposite charges, the plastic rod is negative and the glass rod is positive. If the two rods attract each other, then we can conclude that they have opposite charges. However, we cannot conclude from this experiment alone which one is negative and which one is positive. SInce the two rods attract each other they must have like charges, because like charges attract.…
