At a certain harbor, the tides cause the ocean surface to rise and fall a distance d (from the highest level to lowest level) in simple harmonic motion, with a period of 6.6 h. How long (in hour) does it take for the water to fall a distance of 0.264d from its highest level? Final answer in one decimal place.
