Used to measure the amount of charge on a source when the charge available is very small. As in many electrostatic experiments, it can replace a traditional gold leaf electroscope by showing not only the polarity of the charge but also performing quantitative measurements.
It can also measure the potential difference between two points.
Ranges:
- Charge ranges: ±10nC, ±100nC & ±220nC
- Voltage ranges: ±0.5V, ±2V & ±10V
Applications Include:
- Magnitude and sign of the charge on different objects
- Electrostatic phenomena
- Simple demonstrations of sign of charge
- Charging sharing between conductors
- Faraday's ice pail investigations
- Electrostatic shielding
- Induced charge
- Charging by induction
- Investigating the relationship 'Voltage is proportional to the charge on an object' by adding charges
