This is a vertical free-fall problem where horizontal motion is irrelevant—only gravity matters for the vertical direction. The car leaves the table with zero vertical velocity and falls under constant acceleration $g$. Use the kinematic equation $\Delta y = v_{0y}t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2$ with your known height and initial vertical velocity to find how long the fall takes.
