1. If the accelerating plates are 1.2cm apart and have a potential difference of 25,000V what is the magnitude of the electric field between them?
2. E=V/D
3. E=25,000V/1.2x10^-2m= 2083333.3 V/M

So, what's the problem? It seems to me that you've already solved it.
 
I didn't know if I got the question right...
 
You did. I checked it on my calculator.
