During induction, a positively charged rod is brought near to but not touching the electroscope. The presence of the charged object above the plate of the electroscope induces charges to move down into the gold leaves, giving the electroscope an overall positive charge. The positive leaves repel. The same process occurs when a negative rod is brought close to the electroscope. This time, the negative charges flow through the electroscope to the leaves. The leaves, once again, repel. Whether the charge is positive or negative, in each case, the experiment shows that

This experiment shows that like charges repel while unlike charges attract. in the case of the gold leaf electroscope, the repulsion of the leaf is as a sign if the presence of similar charges in the electroscope. positive repels positive while negative repels negative.

The electroscope

The gold leaf electroscope is an instrument that can be used to determine the type of charges carried by a body via induction. The charged body is brought near but does not touch the electroscope.

From electrostatics we know that like charges repel while unlike charges attract. This is demonstrated in these experiments.
