You can use drop to show that someone dropped something, but you can't use fall in the same way.

Fall is without an object.
Drop is either with an object or without.

The book fell. ...I made the book fall is the only way to include an object.
Whereas ...the book fell... or .....the book dropped... is fine.

I like to think of it has, he dropped to the floor, suggesting he was standing or not at a very tall position above the ground.

Falling would be, the sky is falling, meaning there is a greater height involved and the person/object is falling at a great height and speed.

Also drop is a sudden change in height where fall is a distrastic and gradual change in height.

Drop is followed by an objective , so you can't say "I dropped" but rather say "sorry I dropped the ball"
On the other hand . you can end a sentence with (Fall) - it doesn't require an objective- . you could say " She gave me that look and I Fell in love" or "The dam has fallen"

A human, an ape, a dog, for instance, drops something. But an apple falls from a tree.

Some slang:

"Drop it!" = cease/conclude/end s.t.
"Drop dead!" = a very firm "no" response.
"Fall back" = move away/stand down/return to a former stance.

So as is by now obvious, the words "drop" and "fall" have many meanings as verb, both transitive and intransitive, as well as being part of scores of verb phrases @ which they are assisted by any of several propositions to achieve different ends.

Drop out: quit, e.g., leave school before completion.
Drop in: visit someone/someplace (usually unannounced)
