You can ignore how high the window actually is, unless the calculator falls further. You just want to use the formula v_f = v_i + at Let em know if that doesn't help and I can work you through it.

To check the distance use y = v_i*t + .5at^2. Would just plug in 0*1.8 + .5(-9.8)1.8^2 = -15.876, so it doesn't fall more than 20.7 m so indeed, you don't have to worry about that.

Again, let me know if you need further help.
