A nerve cell is shaped like a cylinder. The membrane wall of the cylinder has a +0.07-V potential difference from the inside to the outside of the wall. To help maintain this potential difference, sodium ions are pumped from inside the cell to the outside. For a typical cell, 10^9 ions are pumped each second.
A) Determine the change in chemical energy each second required to produce this increase in electric potential energy.?

In this part, we will explore electrostatics as it relates to the nerve cell, a critical electrostatic device for almost all life. We will use a rather simplified picture of the nerve cell, and treat it as a parallel plate capacitor. Although oversimplified, this model does correctly describe the underlying physics. As shown in the diagram below, the nerve cell is a fluid-filled tube (the axon) that is surrounded by another fluid. The nerve cell wall (membrane) separates...

When a nerve cell is stimulated electrically, mechanically, or chemically, the permeability of the cell membrane changes and sodium ions (Na+) can diffuse more readily into the cell. If 1.5 x 106 Na+ ions move through the membrane in 5.0 ms, what is the corresponding electric current?
