Answer:
Voltage, V = 0.0524 volts
Explanation:
Thickness of the membrane, [tex]d=7.95\ nm=7.95\times 10^{-9}\ m[/tex]
Electric field strength, [tex]E=6.6\ MV/m=6.6\times 10^6\ V/m[/tex]
We need to find the voltage across it. The relationship between the voltage, electric field and the distance is given by :
[tex]V=E\times d[/tex]
[tex]V=6.6\times 10^6\ V/m\times 7.95\times 10^{-9}[/tex]
V = 0.0524 volts
So, the voltage across the thick membrane is 0.0524 volts. Hence, this is the required solution.
