Why is a tumbler not made with a piece of cloth?

Verified Answer

We use tumblers made of glass, plastic, and metal to keep a liquid. These substances can hold a liquid.

A tumbler made of cloth cannot hold a liquid because:

(i) Cloth piece is not hard enough to hold liquids and

(ii) Cloth piece has very minute pores through which the liquid oozes out.
