29.14 Nerve cells maintain a charge separation across their cell membrane. The cell membrane of a particular cell is 10 nm thick and the cell can be modeled as a cylinder with a diameter of 12 um and a length of 80 µm. If the potential difference across the cell membrane is 90 mV, what is the charge stored on the cell? (you can assume that ɛ, = 1 and you should use the total surface area of the cell in the calculation) 29.15 How much energy is stored in the form of charge separation in the cell in Problem 29.14?

The voltage across a membrane forming a cell wall is 80.0 mV and the membrane is 9.00 nm thick. What is the electric field strength? (The value is surprisingly large, but correct. Membranes are discussed in Capacitors andDielectrics and Nerve Conduction—Electrocardiograms.)You may assume a uniform electric field.

If you examine your smartphone battery, you will likely see two numbers: the battery's "capacity" labeled in mAh (milliamps x hours or milliamp-hours), and the battery's voltage or potential difference in V (volts). 1. What physical quantity is the battery's "capacity" measuring? Explain how you can tell. This answer has not been graded yet. 2. Suppose your phone's battery has a capacity of 2500 mAh and a potential difference of 3.7 V. What is the amount of charge, in C (coulombs), that is stored in your smartphone battery when it's fully charged? Charge = 3. Smartphone chargers are usually labeled with their current output in A (amps). Suppose your charger delivers a current of 1.1 A. If your phone's battery is completely drained, how long will it take to fully charge the battery using your charger? Charging time = hours 4. Smartphones are advertised with a certain amount of "talk time", i.e., how long the phone's battery will last if you are making a call. If your phone is advertised…
