Surely you're aware that a falling object accelerates under the influence of gravity.

That acceleration manifests itself in the form of steadily-increasing speed, so the

time required to fall 186 feet depends on how long it has already been falling.

-- Immediately after it's dropped, the object falls the first 186 feet in 3.399 seconds.

-- It falls the NEXT 186 feet in 1.408 seconds.

-- It falls the next 186 feet in 1.08 seconds.

-- It falls the next 186 feet in 0.911 second.

-- It falls the next 186 feet in 0.802 second.

It would take an object approximately 1.7 seconds to fall 167 feet. This calculation assumes no air resistance and a constant acceleration due to gravity of 9.81 m/s^2.

aprox. 3.2 seconds assuming gravity is a constant at 9.8 ms^-2 and there is no air resistance.
