It is actually impossible to reflect a shadow, as a shadow is merely an absence of light. However, what IS reflected is the light surrounding the shadow. When this light is reflected, it forms a reflected image of the light's shape, complete with a lack of light, or shadow. In this way, it can look like a shadow is reflected.
No, fire does not have a shadow because it emits light and does not block light like solid objects do.

The shadow is lack of light which is caused by obstacles between the "light generator" (like the sun) and the shadowed surface.
Everything has a shadow. I think maybe because the shadow is cast upon it's self. Every object that stands in light casts a shadow, unless that object is light (produces light). A light bulb illuminated on a sunny day,has no shadow of the illumined parts. A flashlight in the sun light is a waste, a flame from a lighter on a sunny day is almost invisible. If an object casts no shadow, then, that object is light. I like to describe it as, (concerning people) a humble person casts no shadow.
A shadow is not considered opaque; rather, it is the absence of light caused by an object blocking a light source. While the object creating the shadow is opaque, the shadow itself is simply a region where light is less intense or absent. Therefore, a shadow does not possess physical substance or opacity like the object casting it.
He could see her silhouette against the setting sun as she stood on the hill. He used a silhouette of himself to cast a shadow on the curtains, fooling the police.
No; a lightsaber blade is made of superheated plasma focused through crystals, which lights up - and light does not cast a shadow.
there are many like your shadow, gravity, light.
It's hard to explain this in words but here goes.There are two ways a shadow changes size based on the position of the light source.If the light is just above and in front of the object the shadow is long, but as the light moves above the object the shadow gets shorter and shorter and shorter until when the light is directly above the object there is little to no shadow at all.If the light is directly in front of an object, like a person, as the light gets closer the light rays can only get past the object at a wider and wider angle (out to the sides) so the area with no light (the shadow) becomes wider and wider.

An object that allows light to pass through it, like a transparent or translucent object, will cast a lighter shadow compared to an opaque object that reflects or absorbs light. This is because less light is blocked or absorbed by a transparent object, resulting in a more faint shadow.
