Eli5 If the equation for force is F=ma why does dropping the same object from 2 different heights change how much an object would be crushed?

Question

In science one year, we did a test of dropping a water bottle from different heights over a Pringle, and we had to protect the Pringle with a paper. But how would increasing the height increase the force is the mass and acceleration is the same?

Answer 1

a = vf−vit = Δvt

t = time. The larger T gets, the larger a gets. The larger a gets, the larger F gets.
