Object at great Height has more potential energy as compared to object at less height.
When the object touches the ground the potential energy changes and causes momentum.
More is the momentum, more is the impact of collision.
This is what I think
Hope it helps
⭐HEY FRIEND!!
Yupss.....as the distance decreases speed will increses...as more speed, it will deal with more damage..
lets take a example...
Assume a person standing on top of a building he will have maxmimum potential energy at that moment.. this energy varies as the height increases, more the height more the potential energy. Now if that person starts to falling down the potential energy will start converting to kinetic energy. The instant he touches the floor PE will be 0 and KE will be maximum. The PE will be maximum for the person who falls from greater height, thus the KE will also be maximum when he touches the floor. Hence he will have maximum damage.
force and acceleration can't be same of its varies with distance....
