Electrostatics Kit
This kit is ideal for small group experiments in electrostatics. The set is built
around the special, dual-purpose electroscope, which in addition to being useful
for general electrostatic experiments, is capable of performing measurements
of the activity of weak radio-active materials. Positive and negative charges can
be produced with the included acetate strips and woollen cloths.
A great variety of experiments can be performed including determining types
of charge, measuring the amount of conducted or induced charge with the gold
leaf electroscope or by using the polystyrene spheres as hollow conductors, and
using the proof plane to investigate the distribution of charges on conductors.
• Kit includes:
• 1x electroscope with top plate and hook electrode
• 1x packet of gold leaves
• 4x metallised polystyrene spheres
• 1x reel of very fine nylon thread
• 2x polythene plate, 75mm square
• 1x electrophorus plate, 50mm diameter
with insulating handle
• 1x proof plane
• 2x aluminium calorimeters
• 1x cellulose acetate strip
• 1x polythene strip with woollen rubber
• 1x stirrup for suspending strip
• Eisco type PH0900

Electroscope Kit
This electroscope kit is ideal for electrostatic charge experiments
and other related studies such as electrostatic induction, the
nature of charge in a body, Faraday’s ice pail experiment, etc.
• Kit includes:
• 2x flask-type electroscopes
• 2x discs
• 2x terminals
• 1x Faraday’s ice pail
• Spare foil leaf included
• Supplied complete with instructions
• Eisco type PH0901
Gold Leaf Electroscope
This gold-leaf electroscope is great for hands-on experience with electrostatic principles
in physics classrooms and labs. When an electrostatic charge is induced or transferred
to the electroscope, the charge causes a thin piece of gold leaf to be repelled away from
its mount. The resultant deflection of the leaf shows the presence of an electrostatic
charge and the angle of the leaf can be used as a measure of the charge.
The solidly constructed sheet anodised aluminium frame of the electroscope is mounted
on a plastic base. Front glass window slides up to allow the insertion of ionizing material
into chamber. A transparent scale is attached inside the chamber to measure the
deflection of the gold leaf.
• Supplied with two gold leaf sheets
• Fitted with 4mm socket
• When assembled, the electroscope measures
165 x 95 x 71mm
• Eisco type PH0916B
Note: the gold-leaf does not come pre-attached to the electroscope.
Instructions on how to properly attach the gold-leaf to the conducting
rod are included in the Experiment Guide. Replacement gold leaf
is available separately.
