That depends on the hammer and brand, most standard sized hammers are 1 foot. The reason behind this is your depth perception at this length is practically maximised therefore you can hit a target, such as a nail, nearly dead on from length.

How fast does the hammer of a single action gun fall?

The hammer does not truly fall, it is driven by the force of a spring. When released by the trigger, it is driven forward in a fraction of a second, moving fast enough to barely be visible while moving. The exact speed will depend on the force of the spring, weight and length of the hammer, but I would estimate the hammer moves around 200 feet per second.
