The average access time is 17.835 ms.

Explanation:

Rotational latency:-

     3600 rotations in 60 seconds.

     1 rotation in 60/3600 * 1000

                          = 16.67ms

Disk access time = seek time + rotational time + transfer time

                             = 8 + 16.67/2 + 1.5

                             = 9.5 + 8.335

                             =   17.835
