Calculus can be used to find the surface area of any object given that you know the equation describing said object.
It's usually easier to find the area from experiment or through using a combination of existing models to approximate the surface area

The prism is a three dimensional object. 3-D objects do not just have area. They have something call surface area, which is the amount of around on the surface of the object. 3-D objects also have volume. Volume is the amount of space inside the object. You can not work out the surface area of volume of just a prism. There are many many prisms out there. Prisms have many shapes and sizes.
The area of a sphere is equal to its circumference times its diameter.There are a variety of ways to work out this formula, most of them involving calculus.(See the links for the volume of a sphere).
It would help if the question was less obscure. What do you mean by "work"? How the surface area affects chemical processes (for example the surface area of catalysts), or diffusion, or surface areas and friction?
Area = base*height
