HEY MATE....!!!

An elastic measuring tape is stretchable. It cannot be used to measure distances because the length of the tape may change on stretching. As a result, the measured length would not be correct.

If you measure the length of an object twice using an elastic tape, then you may get different values of the same length each time. This is because elastic tapes are stretchable

Hope it helps you ❤️✌️✌️

We cannot use elastic measuring tape to measure distance because it is stretchable. If we will measure the distance twice using a elastic measuring tape it may not be equal. It will not give us actual value of ditance
