    128 ft / second.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    It's acceleration is due to gravity and is 32 ft s^-2.

    To find the velocity when it hits the ground we use the equation of motion

    v^2 = u^2 + 2gs where u = initial velocity, g = acceleration, s = distance.

    v^2 = 0^2 + 2 * 32 * 256

    v^2 = 16384

    v = 128 ft s^-1.
