Ametal leaf electroscope has often been used for teaching electrostatics. For example, Fig. 1 is a very early one demonstrating electrostatic induction with a gold leaf electroscope. Alternatively we can charge the electroscope by touching a charged object to it. In both cases, induction or charging, the metal leaves push away from each other for a “Λ” shape.
