Rohit took with him some nylon ropes, when he was going for rock climbing. Can you tell why he selected nylon ropes instead of ropes made of cotton or jute?

Nylon ropes are the strongest, have high elastic properties and are also lighter when compared to jute ropes. Thus, they are used to make ropes, especially when it comes to mountain climbing. Jute ropes are comparatively weaker and using it to make ropes for mountaineering can be risky for the climbers.
