Explanation / Answer

suppose it was dropped from h height above the top of window.

it was dropped so v0 = 0 { initial velocity}

Applying d= v0 t + a t^2 /2

h = g t^2 /2

t1 = sqrt(2 h / g)

and h + 1 = g t2^2 / 2

t2 = sqrt(2 (h + 1) / g)

t2 - t1 = 0.23

sqrt(2 (h + 1) / g) - sqrt(2 h / g) = 0.23

h = 0.53 m ........Ans
