I am stuck on this problem from my physics class. Any assistance is appreciated! 

A simple capacitor is formed using two plates with area 0.40 m2 separated a distance of 0.20
mm. The capacitor is connected to a 9-V battery. (ɛ0 = 8.85 × 10-12 C2/N • m²)
e = 1.60 × 10-19 C(mel = 9.11 × 10-31 kgk = 1/4r80 = 8.99 × 109 N • m²/C2)
(a) What is the magnitude of the electric field between the plates?
(b) What is the capacitance of the capacitor?
(c) What is the magnitude of the charge on each plate of the capacitor?
(d) If an electron is release from rest at the negatively charged plate, how fast will it be
moving when it hits the positively charged plate?
