$A$ body of mass $4 \ kg$ is placed on a plane at a point $P$ having coordinates $(3, 4) \ m$. Under the action of force $\overrightarrow{F} = (2 \hat{i} + 3 \hat{j}) \ N$,it moves to a new point $Q$ having coordinates $(6, 10) \ m$ in $4 \ s$. The average power and instantaneous power at the end of $4 \ s$ are in the ratio of:
