Gold Leaf Electroscope is a sensitive scientific instrument used to detect and measure electric charge. It consists of a metal rod connected to two thin gold leaves enclosed within a glass container. When the rod becomes charged, the leaves repel each other due to like charges, indicating the presence and relative magnitude of electric charge. Gold Leaf Electroscopes are widely used in physics education, research, and experimental demonstrations to study static electricity and charge properties. The gold leaves provide high conductivity and flexibility, ensuring precise detection of electrical phenomena.
