The North Pole would be your answer
The free-body diagram of an apple falling through the air has weight of the apple pointing downwards and the air-resistance on the apple acting upwards.
When an object falls from up to the ground, the object falls under in the influence of acceleration due to gravity.
The vertical component of the force on the apple as it falls trough the air is given as;
∑Fy = 0
Fₙ - W = 0
Fₙ = W
where;
- <em>Fₙ is the frictional force on the apple acting upwards</em>
- <em>W is the weight of the apple acting downwards</em>
The free-body diagram of the apple is represented as follows;
↑ Fₙ
Ο
↓ W
Thus, the free-body diagram of an apple falling through the air has weight of the apple pointing downwards and the air-resistance on the apple acting upwards.

The acceleration of gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s² .
The speed of a falling object keeps increasing smoothly,
in such a way that the speed is always 9.8 m/s faster than
it was one second earlier.
If you 'drop' the penny, then it starts out with zero speed.
If you also start the clock at the same instant, then
After 1.10 sec, Speed = (1.10 x 9.8) = 10.78 meters/sec
After 1.85 sec, Speed = (1.85 x 9.8) = 18.13 meters/sec
But you want this second one given in a different unit of speed.
OK then:
= (18.13 meter/sec) x (3,600 sec/hr) x (1 mile/1609.344 meter)
= (18.13 x 3,600 / 1609.344) (mile/hr) = 40.56 mph (rounded)
We did notice that in an apparent effort to make the question
sound more erudite and sophisticated, you decided to phrase
it in terms of 'velocity'. We can answer it in those terms, if we
ASSUME that there is no wind, and the penny therefore doesn't
acquire any horizontal component of motion on its way down.
With that assumption in force, we are able to state unequivocally
and without fear of contradiction that each 'speed' described above ...
with the word 'downward' appended to it ... does become a 'velocity'.
