Integrated Concepts

Avg difficulty 2.5

A battery-operated car utilizes a 12.0 V system. Find the charge the batteries must be able to move in order to accelerate the 750 kg car from rest to 25.0 m/s, make it climb a 2.00 × 10 2 m 2.00 \times \text{10}^{\text{2}} \text{m} high hill, and then cause it to travel at a constant 25.0 m/s by exerting a 5.00 × 10 2 N 5.00 \times \text{10}^{\text{2}} \text{N} force for an hour.
