A string with weight will be a pulled under gravity. Yes even a taut spider web.
Comment on Do straight lines and flat planes exist in nature?

It depends on where you draw the line (heh) on “straightness” and “flatness”. Some planes on gems or geodes are pretty flat, but probably not perfectly flat. Another example is a spider’s web between two points. That’s a pretty straight line if it’s taut, but again, probably not exactly perfect.

Nothing is perfectly flat, neither in nature nor man made. It's purely a mathematical concept as every surface has some form of texture if you look close enough.

Well, yes. My point exactly.

Right, atoms are not flat
