Best Answer

for a given weight (force), reducing the contact area ie thinner strap, increases the pressure proportionally

pressure (pascals) = force (newtons)/ contact area (m^2)

half the area = twice the pressure

weight of bag * 9.81 = downward force in newtons

Why is difficult to hold a school bag having strap made of thin and strong string?

Because, the thinner strap occupies more area. So, pressure is concentrated at the small area, leading to pain. In case of thicker strap, the bag load is distributed on more area. So, the concentration load becomes less.Read more: Why_it_is_difficult_to_hold_a_school_bag_having_a_strap_made_of_a_thin_and_strong_string
