Answer:

t = 7.5 s

Explanation:

As we know that the average speed between two lights is given as

v = 24 mph

here we know that

v = 24 \times \frac{1602 m}{3600 s}

v = 10.68 m/s

now the distance between two lights is 80 m

so here if all the cars are moving continuously between two lights then the time delay between two lights is given as

t = \frac{L}{v}

t = \frac{80}{10.68}

t = 7.5 s
