If you free fall for 2.6 seconds what will be your final velocity and how far will you fall?

Your internal velocity will be 0, and acceleration will be 9.81 as default, and negative because it's falling down.
Using this equation to solve for final velocity:
Vf = a*t + Vi
Vf = -9.81*2.6 + 0
Vf = 25.51 m/s
To find your displacement, use this equation
Displacement=1/2*a*(t)^2 + Vi*t
D= 1/2*-9.81*6.76+0
D= -33.16 m
Displacement is negative because you free fall.
