Given: distance 1 d₁ = 40 m;  distance 2 d₂ = 3.8 m   g = -9.8 m/s²

 Initial Velocity Vi = 0  Final Velocity of stone 2 is unknown = ?

Total distance dₓ = d₁ - d₂  = 40 m - 3.8 m = 36.2 m

Formula: a = Vf² -  Vi²/2d   derive for Final Velocity Vf
 
acceleration is now due to gravity, therefore a = g

Vf = √2gd   Vf = √2(9.8 m/s²)(36.2 m)

Vf = 26.64 m/s  

Reason: The second stone will still start from rest.
