6. At time \(t\) seconds, where \(t \geqslant 0\), a particle \(P\) moves so that its acceleration \(\mathbf { a } \mathrm { m } \mathrm { s } ^ { - 2 }\) is given by $$\mathbf { a } = 5 t \mathbf { i } - 15 t ^ { \frac { 1 } { 2 } } \mathbf { j }$$ When \(t = 0\), the velocity of \(P\) is \(20 \mathbf { i } \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\)
Find the speed of \(P\) when \(t = 4\)
