The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.
See if you get the answer with this formulae.
The distance covered by an object accelerating from rest is
D = (1/2) · (acceleration) · (time)² .
In this particular case, 'acceleration' is 9.8 m/s² ... due to gravity.
D = (1/2) · (9.8 m/s²) · (1.67 s)²
D = (4.9 m/s²) · (2.789 s²)
D = 13.67 meters
