Why is the smaller object heavier than a larger object?
The only time a smaller object is lighter than a larger object is when it's denser. A smaller iron object is heavier than a somewhat larger wooden object because iron is denser than wood.
Can the shadow of an object be bigger than the object itself?
Yes, especially when the sun is low.
When the object is nearer to the light source the shadow formed is?
cooler than the lgith source
The distance time graph for a faster moving object has a smaller slope than the graph for a slower moving object True or false?
The distance time graph for a faster moving object has a smaller slope than the graph for a slower moving object - This is False
The distance-time graph for a faster moving object has a smaller slope than the graph for a slower moving object. true or false?

Why shadow get smaller and bigger in a scientifically explination?
The size of a shadow has everything to do with placement of the light source, the object, and the background on which the shadow is cast. In general, if the light source is close to the object and the background is further away then the shadow is larger than the object. The opposite is true if the light source is further away. Another part of the equation has to do with angles. This is what we commonly observe happining to shadows at different times of the day; long shadows in the morning and evening and smaller shadows around the middle of the day.

Why is only part of the earth in shadow during a solar eclipse?

Do eyes make object smaller?
No, eyes do not make objects smaller. The image of an object on the retina is smaller than the object itself.

Who is stronger Shadow or Static?
Shadow is stronger than any object in the world although Static is stronger than any object in the universe so Static is stronger
When is the umbra smaller than the object?
When the light source is bigger than the object.

Yes, especially when the sun is low.
How shadows are formed?
A shadow is formed when an opaque object blocks the travel of light on a second object. Light travels in straight lines and any barrier along its path averts the rays striking the barrier.This forms a region of darkness, shaped like the surface of the object obstructing the light. A shadow takes up all the space behind the object with light before it. Its cross-section is a two-dimensional outline of the obstructing object. The shadow is smaller if the angle between an object and the path of light is nearer to 90°. It is longer if the angle between the surface and the path of light is smaller. If the obstructing object is closer to the starting point of light, the shadow is larger.
Why does the moon casts a smaller shadow on earth?
because the moon is much smaller than earth
What is the difference between a shadow of an object created by a small light source and the sun?
Shadow from light source always bigger than object but shadow from the sun is the same size as object. Great different is due to the distance of light source. Size of shadow is double at distance x 2 source to object. Shadow is always bigger than object. You will notice your shadow is bigger in light bulb or stadium spot light but the shadow from sun is the same size as object. This is due to great distance from sun to us (150 million km approximately) the double distance to see our shadow to be double is at 300 million km from the Sun. at merely 10 m or 100 km is almost no distinguishable different in shadow size to the object. We then presume shadow cause from sunlight is equal to the size of the object.
