Aglass rod is rubbed with nylon. the rod is then brought close to the metal knob of an electroscope. a person's finger briefly touches the knob on the far side and is then removed. after the rod is removed the charge on the electroscope will be

On removal to the glass rod the leaves of the electroscope will disperse away under the influence of the positive charge due to deficiency of electrons.

Explanation:

When a glass rod is rubbed against a nylon then the electrons from the surface of the glass rod get transferred to the nylon piece and as a result the glass rod attains positive electrostatic charge.

When this positively charged rod is brought close to the knob of an electroscope then the electrons from that metallic of the electroscope feel attraction and move toward the glass rod get concentrated on the knob.

the answer is 100. i just did this lesson and got a 100% on it. : )
