You know C = κε0A/d , V = Ed, and Q/V = C (The only thing you don't know is A)
Q/(Ed) = κε0A/d
A = Q/(Eκε0) Sub in. Make sure d is in meters and Q in Coulombs and you will get area in m2
Take care.

asked 05/13/23The electric field between the plates of a paper-separated (K=3.75) capacitor is 8.21×104 V/m . The plates are 1.75 mm apart, and the charge on each plate is 0.690 μC .Determine the area of each plate.
