What is the Difference between the shadow formed in noon n in the evening?

The primary difference between shadows formed at noon and in the evening lies in the angle of the sunlight. At noon, the sun is at its highest point in the sky, resulting in shorter shadows that are more directly beneath objects. In the evening, the sun is lower on the horizon, causing longer shadows that stretch away from the light source. This change in shadow length and direction is due to the sun's position relative to the Earth.

How do the direction and length of your shadow in the morning compare to it's direction and length at noon?

In the morning, your shadow is longer and points towards the west as the sun rises in the east. By noon, when the sun is at its highest point in the sky, your shadow becomes much shorter and points directly beneath you or slightly towards the north, depending on your location. This change in length and direction occurs due to the sun's position in the sky throughout the day.
