why do the coolie put that round thick cloth on their head and then the weight on it.

Coolie or porter place a round piece of cloth on their heads,when they haave to carry heavy loads.By doing this they increase the area of contact of the load with their head.So, the pressure on their head is reduced and they find it easier to carry the load.

Hope it helps!

they use thick piece of cloth when they have to carry heavy loads so that the area of contact of the force is increased. thus, it results in lesser pressure on their heads.
