Do shadows change with light?
yes
Why and how do shadows change?
Shadows are places where the light cant get to, so depending on where the source of light is, the power or brightness of it and the size of the object, the shadow will change.
How do shadows change size?
when the distance between the light source and the object changes
What causes a shadow to change?
The position of the sun through out the day? The Earth's rotation changes the angle of the sun as the day passes, so the shadows change based on the position of the sun in the sky. If the sun is up high (around noon), the shadows will be short or not appear to exist (they are under or nearly under the objects). As it gets later in the day, the shadows get longer.
How does change in the thickness of lens change the focal length of lens?
Not at all. The focal length is determined by the curvature of the surfaces.
How does earths rotation causes shadows to change length and position?
As the earth rotates the angle if the sunlight changes which affects shadows.
Why do shadows get longer and shorter?
Shadows change length during the day because as the earth rotates on its axis, the angle between the sun and any given point on the earth changes.
Why is the shadow of your body taller than you?
Depending on which angle the sun is in relation to your body your shadows length can change.
How and why do shadows change during the day?
the shadows change as the earth rotates on its axis. the sun stays still so the shadows change.
Will shadows on mercury change length more or less quickly than shadows on earth?
Less quickly becaus it takes longer to rotate on its axis therefore one mercury day equals 59 earth days
What is the length of shadows during the day in summer and winter?
Shadows lengths are less in summer than winter.
Why do the length and direction of shadows change during the day?
the lengths and direction of shadows change during the day because of some factors these are: 1) position of the earth facing the sun 2) time of the day 3) power of suns rays 4) place object is in 5) what object is around
How does the angle of the sun affect the length of shadows?
Chicken nuggets
How can shadows change over time?
Shadows depend on the location of the light source.If, for example, the sun is your light source it will change the size and shape of shadows as it crosses the sky during the day.
Do shadows change with light?
yes
How would the change in the suns path from summer to winter affect the length and position of shadows?
Exactly the same as the change in the sun's position from noon to sunset affects them ... they stay exactly opposite the direction of the sun, but they get longer.
Why the shadows are tallest in the morning?
Shadows appear tallest in the morning because the sun is low on the horizon, casting longer shadows due to the angle of sunlight. As the day progresses, the sun rises higher, reducing the length of shadows.
