mohan factured his arm & had to have a plaster of a sling made of thin strip of gauze .it was difficult to carry the plaster,so his mother made him a plaster of her dupattata .it was much easier for him. why
Strip of the gauge has lower area of contact which exerts more pressure on the hand of the mohan, but dupatta has larger area of contact which exerts less pressure from the relation,P = F/A.
