A typical cell membrane is 8.0 nm thick and has an electrical resistivity of 1.3 107 Ohms · m.

(a) If the potential difference between the inner and outer surfaces of a cell membrane is 80 mV, how much current flows through a square area of membrane 1.2 µm on a side?
A

(b) Suppose the thickness of the membrane is doubled, but the resistivity and potential difference remain the same. Does the current increase or decrease or remain the same?
By what factor?

Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps but also due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. to get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length of a column of water 1.00 km high for a temperature increase of 1.00ºc. note that this calculation is only approximate because ocean warming is not uniform with depth. (answer in ×10^{-3} −3 m)
