Answer:

During high fever a wet cloth is kept on the forehead of a person to decrease the temperature of body. ... When the wet cloth is placed on the forehead, water in wet cloth starts to evaporate and it starts to absorb a lot of heat from our body. Hence it is used to decrease the temperature of body.
