Cells in the nervous system have a potential difference of 70 mV across the cell membrane separating the interior of the cell from the extracellular fluid. This potential difference is maintained by ion pumps that move charged ions across the membrane. Is this an emf?
Patients with recurring ventricular arrhythmia, irregular beats of the heart's ventricles, are often fitted with implantable cardioverter defibrillators
(ICD) that monitor the beating of the patient's heart. Much like an external defibrillator, an ICD delivers up to 40.0 J of energy to the heart when
irregular heartbeat is detected. A standard ICD contains a 3.2 V lithium ion battery and has an equivalent capacitance of 140 µF.
(a) What is the charge (in C) stored on the fully charged capacitor in an ICD?
0.106
с
(b) What should the internal resistance (in 2) of the charging circuit in the ICD be if the capacitor is to attain 94.9% of its maximum charge within
1.75 s?

How does the charge of a capacitor increase as it is being charged? What is the desired percentage of the total charge after the time interval
specified in the problem?
