PhysicsEasysingle choice

A glass rod rubbed with silk is used to change a gold leaf electroscope and the leaves are observed to diverge. The electroscope thus charged is exposed to X-rays for a short period. Then

Options:

Answer:

Solution:

As charge on glass $rod$ is $+$ (ve) so charge on gold leaves will also be $+ ($ ve $)$ . Due to X-rays more electrons from leaves will be emitted, so leaves becomes more positive and diverge further.
