Centripetal Force

A particle, body, object or certain mass while travelling in a rotational path or semicircular path, experiences an inertia force. If that inertia force pulls the towards the inward of the imaginary circle in the rotation, it is termed as centripetal force.

Question

28. V In 1865 Jules Verne proposed sending men to the Moon
by firing a space capsule from a 220-m-long cannon with final
speed of 10.97 km/s. What would have been the unrealisti-
cally large acceleration experienced by the space travelers
during their launch? (A human can stand an acceleration of
3

15g for a short time.) Compare your answer with the free-fall
acceleration, 9.80 m/s².

An object is released from rest at a height of h. During the final second of its fall, it traverses a distance of 38m. Determine h. I would like to know the solution but also maybe an explanation on how I would know what process to take. For the last second, I was able to find that final vf = 38m/s. That is vf = deltax/deltat, or 38m/1s. I plugged it in to vf2 = vo2 + 2a(deltax), since I think that vf shouldn't change for h, but I got the wrong answer. Please explain.
