The inner and the outer surfaces of a cell membrane act asplates in a parallel-plate capacitor. Model the cell as a 50-μmsphere with the membrane being 6 nm thick and having the dielectricconstant of 8. If the voltage across membrane is 70 mV, what is theapproximate magnitude of charge that resides on each side of themembrane?
