Answer:
The ratio of the time he is above ymax /2 to the time it takes him to go from the floor to that height = 0.707
Explanation:
The mathematical derivation and steps is as shown in the attached file.
This phenomenon is as a result of static friction created by the tumbling clothes. Static friction results from the rubbing together of two or mores objects or body and electrons are stripped from one surface of the clothes more than the other. This creates an electrostatic force of attractions between the positive charges on one cloth and the negative charges on the other cloth.(unlike charges attract).

Answer:
1.05 J.
Explanation:
Kinetic Energy: This is the energy possessed by a body due to its motion. The S.I unit of kinetic energy is Joules (J). The formula of kinetic energy is given as
Ek = 1/2mv²................. Equation 1
Where Ek = kinetic energy, m = mass of the uniform rod, v = liner velocity of the rod.
But,
v = αr .......................... Equation 2
Where α = angular velocity of the rod, r = radius of the circle.
Given: α = 3.6 red/s, r = 120/2 = 60 cm = 0.6 m.
Substitute into equation 2
v = 3.6(0.6)
v = 2.16 m/s.
Also given: m = 450 g = 0.45 kg.
Substitute into equation 1
Ek = 1/2(0.45)(2.16²)
Ek = 1.05 J.
