The arm of a neutral electroscope is vertical, as shown in Figure 1. The electroscope is given a charge, and the arm moves to the position shown in Figure 2. Then a uniformly charged non-conducting rod is brought near the top of the electroscope, and the arm of the electroscope moves to the position shown in Figure 3. Which of the following must be true about the charge on the electroscope and the rod?
