Best Answer

All rope stretches because it consists of materials at an angle to the load putting tension on the rope, and they try to straighten when pulled. How much the rope can stretch, and at what point the stretch weakens the rope, depends upon the materials used and the rope construction - laid up or braid, and the combinations of these.
