Why Isn't my tablet turning on?

Okay, so this morning I dropped my tablet, while getting out of my car and it fell on the ground and cracked slightly. I could still use it, however. The touch ability worked and everything worked as normal, just that it had a crack at the corner and across it. So then later this evening it suddenly turned off?? Like it wont even respond when I put it for charge or touch the home screen button??

Also, I don't know if this is going to be helpful, but a few minutes before the tablet turned off I had put it on top of the laundry basket. The clothes weren't really that wet, but I don't know if somehow the screen is extremely sensitive to water and it seeped through the cracks and damaged the tablet further or something??

Please respond!!
