Problem

When water is drained from a pool, the water level \(h\) in it varies depending on the time \(t\) according to the function \(h (t) = at^2 + bt + c\), and at the time \(t_0\) of when the draining is ending, the equalities \(h (t_0) = h' (t_0) = 0\) are satisfied. For how many hours does the pool drain completely, if in the first hour the water level in it is reduced by half?
