How could you change the size of your shadow?
You can either move closer to the light source or move the light source closer to you. The size of your shadow just depends upon how much of the light you are obscuring so the more you block out, the bigger your shadow.
Why are blunt scissors bad at cutting things out?
The scissor blade has a slightly bigger area making the pressure on the object you are cutting much smaller
What happens to an object when it moves closer to convex lens?
No, the closer an object is to the lens, the more the spherical it is.
What happens to density when an object is frozen?
With the exception of water, the particles of an object move closer together and become a solid. Being closer together makes the density rise once it becomes frozen but the density won't rise if the temperature is lowered and the object is already frozen. When water freezes, the density lowers, making ice float.
What makes distant objects look bigger and nearer?
if the object is too close to the eye the distance bteween the object and retina is less and hence the image of the object is not formed on the retina so we cannot see the object properly

What happened to the pupil as the object get closer?
the pupil becomes smaller trying to converge the light coming from the object.
Does a shadow stay the same if the object is closer to the light source?
No, it gets bigger as it gets closer because not as much light can get around it.
As an object is brought closer to the lens of a camera the image is?
when an object is brought closer to the lens of a camera it gets smaller so that we could capture it properly. such lenses in a camera are conclave.
