    Answer:

    It will take 30 seconds to reach the ground, and it will be travelling at 294 m/s when it does so. This means that its average velocity was 147 m/s.

    Explanation:

    d=v_ot+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

    Since the initial velocity of a dropped object is 0, we can make this the equation:

    d=\dfrac{1}{2}at^2 \\\\4410=\dfac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2 \\\\t^2=900

    t=30\text{ seconds}

    The final velocity can be calculated with the formula:

    v_f=v_o+at

    Once again, since there is no initial velocity:

    v_f=at \\\\v_f=(9.8)(30)=294m/s

    Since the initial velocity is 0, the average vertical velocity is 294/2=147 m/s.

    Hope this helps!
