Rolling down the electric hill Distributions of electric charges in a cell play a role in moving ions into and out of a cell. In this situation, the motion of the ion is affected by two forces: the electric force due to the non uniform charge distribution in the cell membrane, and the resistive force (viscosity) due to colliding with the fluid molecules. In order to begin our analysis of this, let's consider a toy model in which the ion...
