Explanation / Answer

step;1

Given that

the electric field E=3.7*10^5 N/c

charge Q=1.5*10^9*1.6*10^-19=2.4*10^-10 C

distance d=0.5 mm=5*10^-4 m

step;2

now we find the diameter of the disks

3.7*10^5=9*10^9*2.4*10^-10*5*10^-4/(a^2+(5*10^-4)^2)^3/2

3.7*10^5=108*10^-5/(a^2+(5*10^-4)^2)3/2

(a^2+(5*10^-4)^3/2=29.2*10^-10

a^2+(5*10^-4)^2=(29.2*10^-10)^2/3

a^2+25*10^-8=96*10^-8

a^2=(96-25)*10^-8

a=8.43*10^-4 m

radius r=0.834 mm

diameter D=2*0.834=1.668 mm
