What kind of question is that? Think about it and take a good look around.
Shadows give us information about shapes of objects. Sometimes, shadows can also mislead us about the shape of the object. :)
Yes, the shape of an object does make a difference in the formation of shadows. Different shapes will cast different shadow patterns depending on their contours and angles, leading to variations in the shadow's size, darkness, and sharpness.
Cast and form shadows: -Cast shadows are just typical shadows that are created when light is blocked by an object. -Form shadows are the shadows that are on the object and away from the light source. Usually, in painting, cast shadows are used to give an object a more realistic and 3D look to them.
Objects make shadows when they block light from a light source. Light travels in straight lines and when an object blocks the path of the light, a shadow is formed on the surface behind the object where the light cannot reach.
You can create four shadows with the same object by placing the object under four different light sources at the same time, each casting a separate shadow in different directions. This can be achieved by positioning the light sources in a way that they shine on the object from different angles, creating multiple shadows.
Use a flashlight
To make shadows sharper, you can increase the light source’s intensity, focus the light on a smaller area, or decrease the distance between the object and the surface where the shadow is cast. Using a direct, strong light source positioned closer to the object will also help create sharper shadows.

Yes, shadows are created when an object blocks light. As long as there is a source of light and an object to block it, shadows will be present.
At 7 AM shadows fall to the west of an object.
Yes, it is possible for one object to have three shadows if there are multiple light sources casting shadows from different angles. Each light source will create its own shadow, resulting in multiple shadows for the object.
Shadows are formed because when light hits an object, it does not pass through it. Light going around the edge of the object fills in the light void a bit, but it does not make up for the missing light.
