Question:
In an electroscope, if a negatively charged body is brought in contact with the disc, the strips of the electroscope diverge.If now another charged object carrying equal amount of positive charge is brought in contact with the disc, what will happen
Answer:

When the negatively charged body is brought in contact with disc, the strips of electroscope diverges, this shows that the charge on electroscope is negative.

Because the same charges repel each other and the strips open up(diverge).

So, if we brought the positively charged body  in contact with disc, the divergence of the strips decreases.
