If you bring a charged strip near an electroscope that is neutral,

the leaves • Spread and have the same charge as the charged

strip• Spread and have the opposite charge as the

charged strip• come together and have the same charge as the

charged strip• come together and have the opposite charge as

the charged strip

The correct answers is...

• Spread and have the same charge as the charged strip

Opposite charges

• Attract

• Repel

• Fight in a cage match

The correct answers is...

• Attract!

Good Luck on the test, tomorrow!Here are some suggestions about how to study:

• Look over the labs, especially concentrate on the questions and their answers.

• Skim through the reading assignments and the look over the questions and their answers.

• Look over the worksheets and try solving some of the problems again without looking at your answers.
