How fast is a body falling when it hits bottom from a height of 45 feet?

What equation do you use? Then how do you convert that to miles per hour? Thanks

I know that a falling body can only reach terminal velocity. I think TV is around 180mph (correct me if im wrong), but given the length, you need the equation t=sqrt(2d/g) and solve for time...then with time,use the equation V=1/2gt...i may be wrong, but hey, i aint einstein
