1. Take an iron stand with a clamp.
2. Take cotton thread and synthetic threads like nylon about 50 cm in length.
3. Tie the cotton thread to the stand, so that it hangs freely from it.
4. At the free and attach a pan, so that a weight can be placed on it.
5. Add weight starting from 10 grams one by one, till the thread breaks down.
6. Note the total weight required to break the thread.
7. Repeat the same activity with synthetic thread also.
8. We can observe that more weights are required to break the synthetic thread than cotton thread.
9. Conclusion: Synthetic threads are stronger than cotton threads.
