(b) The student uses an electroscope. This piece of apparatus can be used to detect
the presence of a charge.

The diagram shows the electroscope, which consists of a metal cap joined to a

metal rod. The end of a thin piece of metal is attached to the metal rod.

The student places the positively charged plastic rod onto the metal cap.

This causes the thin piece of metal to move away from the metal rod.
