Sunrise is the time at which the sun rises over the horizon and sunset is the time at which the sun sets below the horizon. It visually shows the change between the positions of the sun and earth.
A simple experiment : You stand still, and someone holds a light source.
When the person moves the light higher (like sunrise) your shadow will become shorter.
When the person moves the light lower (like sunset) your shadow will become longer.
You can easily understand that a shadow is longest when the Sun is on the horizon. That's at sunrise or sunset.
the shadow changes during the day because the sun seems to be moving from east to west across the sky during the day. As a result, the shadow of something changes because the sun is on the other side of it. Hope this helps you!
The shadow, or ring, around the Sun are caused by ice crystals located in thin cirrus clouds. The shadow can be seen from Earth.

if youstanding one place and watch your shadow it will slowly get smaller/longer and move the reason is either that the sun is moving around and making the shadow different or the earth is moving around the Sun. This is why the sun appears to "rise and set". your body blocking the suns light is what makes the shadow

No, when the sun is directly above us we don't have shadow. The shadow is under us. I disagree: Most people are bigger around at the hips than at the feet so you will have a shadow around your feet.
The shadow of a tree moves along the ground as the position of the sun changes throughout the day. In the morning, the shadow is longest as the sun is low on the horizon. As the sun rises higher, the shadow shortens and moves, reaching its shortest length around noon. In the afternoon, the shadow begins to lengthen again as the sun starts to set.
