Final answer:

The car traveled a total distance of 62.0 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total distance traveled by the car, we need to calculate the distance traveled during the constant velocity period and the distance traveled during the acceleration period.



The total distance traveled by the car is the sum of the distances from both periods: 12.0 m + 50.0 m = 62.0 m.
