Im having some problems with this question
Some cells in the human body have a layer of negative charge on the inner surface and a layer of positive charge of equal magnitude on the outer surface. The charge densities are +/- 5.0e-4 C.m^-2, the cell wall is 5nm thick and the cell wall material has a dielectric constant of K = 5.4
Given that the cell is approx spherical which a radius of 3 micrometres, estimate the total electric field energy stored in the wall of the cell...
any help would be much appreciated, thanks...
