A 750-kg electric car running solely on a 12.0-V battery attempts to scale a hilltop with a 200-m elevation. Suppose that the car first accelerates from rest to 25.0 m/s, climbs the hill, then travels at a constant 25.0 m/s for an hour while the engine produces a 500 N force. How much charge mustthe battery be able to pump to do so?

I need help understanding this question and the concept of it. A battery-operated car utilizes a 12.0 V system. Find the charge the batteries must be able to move, in megaCoulombs, in order to accelerate a 750 kg car from rest to 45 m/s, make it climb a 2.14E+02 m high hill, and then cause it to travel at a constant 27 m/s by exerting a 5.00E+02 N force for 55 minutes. Use g = 10 m/s2, if needed. This is a problem that connects the work, energy, and power concepts of Physics 1 to work/energy in electrical systems.
