arth, reducing it tozero potential. Tiiis mu5t b3 so, since B, b^ing in the field of A, is at apositive potential. Ikit, although, after being touched, B is at zero potential,it still retains a negative charge at the end near A. This result follows what-ever part of it is touched, since connecting… … Fig. 730 tlie negative charge at the end of B spreads over its surface, and thepotential of the cyHnder becomes negative. The experiments described above may easily be made with a gold-leafelectroscope and a charged body, glass or sealing-wax. Fig. 730 illustratesthe case when an excited rod…
