Why do some objects make light shadows and some objects make dark shadows?

When will an object cast 2 shadows?
Yes, it can. A shadow is caused by the interruption of light from a single source. If you have more than one light source, you can have more than one shadow. Some shadows may not be as distinct (diffused light, shadow on brightly lit surfaces, etc.), and multiple shadows will practically always overlap to some extent.
Explain why shadows are not pitch black?
Shadows are not totally black because some light gets into the shadow area from reflection of light from objects around the area, and even from dust in the air around the shadow zone.
What is Shadow Formation?
That light cannot pass through some materials, and that this leads to the formation of shadows.
Who is better Synyster Gates or M. Shadows?
It is a matter of opinion. Some think M. Shadows is better, while others think that Synyster Gates is better.
If there is only one light source on the moon how could the shadows face different ways?
The same way it happens on Earth-- if you go outside you should see plenty of examples. It is an optical illusion, basically, caused by uneven ground, holes, the angles from which you see the shadows (perspective). If you could somehow hover up above it all, you would see the shadows as parallel to one another. Some people like to pretend this isn't true and that shadows from different angles are proof of multiple lights, like those in a movie studio. But multiple light sources mean multiple shadows... there are NO Apollo pictures like that. And no one has ever devised a single studio light that can simulate sunlight well enough to have faked the Apollo footage and pics. While we are on the subject, while the Sun is that primary and overpowering source of light, there is still a bit of light reflecting off the Earth, much larger in the sky than the Moon is to us. It doesn't seem to be bright enough to cast multiple shadows, though. Also to be considered are reflected light from the spacesuits, LM, gear, and above all else, the lunar soil. The light reflecting from the lunar soil bounces upward, illuminating things like the LM's dark side, as well as the astronauts. The reason that rock shadows are so dark is that lunar soil cannot bounce light sideways very much, to illuminate itself in the rock shadows. I am posting some links to sites that will help you understand the things the lunar hoax believers don't understand. Hope this helps.
How does light make shadows?
Shadows are areas that are not receiving as much light as the areas around them. Because light rays travel in a straight line, anything opaque will stop them, and the shadow will take a shape similar to the object blocking the light (when viewed looking toward the light source, this is called a silhouette). Some light, however, can be scattered by the air, fog, or dust, or reflected from the areas that do receive light. So shadows can be less distinct, especially where there are multiple light sources and/or a great deal of reflected light.Example: On a sunny day on a snowy mountain, the shadows of trees or other objects are seldom distinct due to multiple reflections of light from the snow around them.
What is the meaning of the enemies dart like shadows?
The phrase implies that some enemies are difficult to detect or keep track of, just as shadows can rapidly shift position, especially when you are close to the source of the light.
Are all shadows black?
Yes... and No ...A shadow is caused by an object blocking light so that it doesn't reach a surface. The area in shadow appears black because there is no light falling on it -- it appears dark. In fact, most shadows aren't totally black, because light usually bounces around the obstruction off other objects (indirect lighting). You can also get coloured shadows where there are multiple light sources of different colours. e.g. in a nightclub or disco. Translucent objects may cast coloured shadows, e.g. stained glass in a church, where only some of the light has been blocked by the window.
Does mars have little light or lots off light?
it has some light but only reflective.
What are some examples of visual imagery?
"The shadows crisscrossed the rug while my cat stretched languidly in one of the patches of sun.
Why do shadows go in straight lines?
Because light travels in straight lines. (unless some form of meta-material is present in its path).
