Speed = distance/time = (8+6+16)/(1/4+1/4+1/4) = (30)/(3/4) = 40 kmph.

d1/t1 = 8 /0.25 = 32 Km /Hr (1st quarter speed). d2/t2 = 6/0.25 = 24 Km/Hr (2nd quarter speed). d3/t3 = 16/0.25 = 64 Km/Hr (3rd quarter speed). Hence the average speed for all quarters = (32+24+64)/3 = 120 / 3 = 40 km/Hr.

Should I join rank improvement batch of made easy or panacea institute if my gate rank is 4436 from self study.
Both are good. However, please avoid institutes like Gate Forum. They will offer low tuition fee and huge discounts. However, the GATE course material is of poor quality and faculties is mostly freshers.

Why Battery rated in Ah (Ampere hour) and not in VA.
The amp-hour is a unit of battery energy capacity, equal to the amount of continuous current multiplied by the discharge time, that a battery can supply before exhausting its internal store of chemical energy,and this cannot be measured by VA.
