Resistivity of the cell membrane


A cell membrane consists of a resistance and a capacitance and therefore a characteristic time constant. Determine the time constant of an 8.5nm thick membrane surrounding a 4.6×10-2 mm-diameter spherical cell? Suppose the resistivity of the cell membrane as 3.6*10^6 ohm*m and the dielectric constant is around 9.0.
