the acceleration is a = -0.33
so the height y = h - 0.165 t^2
so find how long it takes to fall (solve y=0 for t)
and the average velocity is -h/t
An object, let go from rest at height h, travels 0.33h during its first second. Find the average velocity of the entire free fall.

average velocity during its first second is ... 0.33h/s
its starting from rest , so the velocity after one second is ... 0.66h/s
... so the acceleration is ... 0.66h/s^2
h = 1/2 * 0.66 h/s^2 * t^2 ... 2 s^2 = 0.66 t^2 ... t = √(2 / 0.66) s
average velocity = h / t
its starting from rest , so the velocity after one second is ... 0.66h/s
... so the acceleration is ... 0.66h/s^2
h = 1/2 * 0.66 h/s^2 * t^2 ... 2 s^2 = 0.66 t^2 ... t = √(2 / 0.66) s
average velocity = h / t
