To calculate the average magnitude of the E field across a body cell membrane, we need to first

Question

Determine the average magnitude of the electric field across a cell membrane. A 0.150-V potential difference exists from one side to the other, and the membrane is 7.5 × 10^(-9) m thick. Assume that the dielectric constant is 1.0 (it is actually somewhat larger). Determine the magnitude of the electrical force on a sodium ion (charge +e) in the membrane.
