How much power must be produced by the active pumping system

Reference no: EM13274817

During an action potential, Na+ ions move into the cell at a rate of about 3×10^?7mol/m2?s. How much power must be produced by the "active Na+ pumping" system to produce this flow against a +30?mV potential difference? Assume that the axon is 80cm long and 20?m in diameter.
