Calculate the potential difference across the membrane

Reference no: EM13540056

The electric field within the membrane separating the inside and outside of a biological cell is approximately 7.5 MV/m and is essentially uniform. If the membrane is 10 nm thick, what is the potential difference across the membrane?
