It depends. For one, how bendy the ruler is. If it is really bendy then the eraser will not be propelled that far. If it is slightyly bendy it will go far. Second, the eraser's surface area and weight affects its flight through the air. Third, the force of the propulsion also accounts for distance. If the eraser is about 4"x2" with a moderately bendy ruler and gets an average thrust then the eraser will be propelled about 10 feet.

The distance a bendable ruler can launch a big eraser will depend on various factors such as the force applied, angle of launch, elasticity of the ruler, and weight of the eraser. In general, a bendable ruler may not be very effective at launching objects due to its flexibility compared to a rigid object like a ruler or a catapult.
