### Problem Statement

A robot moves in the \(xy\)-plane. The robot’s acceleration has components given by:

\[a_x = (6.00 \, \text{m/s}^4) \, t^2\]
\[a_y = 3.00 \, \text{m/s}^2 - (8.00 \, \text{m/s}^3) \, t\]

(The \(y\)-direction is positively upward). If it initially starts from rest and its initial position is:

\[ \mathbf{r} = (5.0 \, \text{m}) \, \mathbf{\hat{i}} + (2.0 \, \text{m}) \, \mathbf{\hat{j}} \]

Answer the following:

1. **Calculate the \(x\)- and \(y\)-components of the robot’s velocity at time \(t = 4.0 \, \text{s}\).**

2. **Calculate the \(x\)- and \(y\)-components of the robot’s displacement at time \(t = 4.0 \, \text{s}\).**

3. **When does the robot reach its maximum height?**
