Answer:
0.044 V
Explanation:
E = Electric field = [tex]5.5\times 10^6\ V/m[/tex]
d = Thickness of membrane = 8 nm
When the electric field strength is multiplied by the membrane thickness we get the voltage
Voltage across a gap is given by
[tex]V=Ed\\\Rightarrow V=5.5\times 10^6\times 8\times 10^{-9}\\\Rightarrow V=0.044\ V[/tex]
The voltage across the membrane is 0.044 V
