With what velocity does it hit the ground?
The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s

I answered a virtually identical question recently, just a different drop height.
v = sqrt (2 g h)
to make it simple but for the two ways to get there see:

By the way, the answer does not depend on the rebound. You hit at a certain speed v = sqrt (2 g h) ignoring air friction. Your rebound height depends on your elasticity (coef of restitution) and the ground consistency (not squishy)
