Figure 1 shows a high-performance electric vehicle (EV) connected to an ultra-fast DC charging station.

EV DC Charging Setup

The vehicle's lithium-ion battery pack stores electrical energy to power the vehicle's motors.

The high-voltage battery pack operates at a potential difference of 800 V and can store up to 360 MJ360\text{ MJ}360 MJ of electrical energy.

It takes 15 minutes15\text{ minutes}15 minutes for the battery to receive a full charge from empty.

Assume that the charging process is 100% efficient.

Calculate the total charge that flows while the battery is being charged.
