The infiltration capacity of a soil follows the Horton's exponential model, f = c1 + c2e-kt. During an experiment, the initial infiltration capacity was observed to be 200 mm/h. After a long time, the infiltration capacity was reduced to 25 mm/h. If the infiltration capacity after 1 hour was 90 mm/h, the value of the decay rate constant, k (in h-1, up to two decimal places) is _______.

Correct : 0.98 to 1.00
