The shadow moves during the day because you are a solid, the sunlight can't get through any solid, so your body casts your shadow. and yes, the sun moves. Even if you don't move, you can still see your shadow moving. It is super long in the morning, pointing to the west, then super short in noon, to North or South, and then super long again in the afternoon, pointing to East.

Who are you I am one every night without a light but make two during the day?

You are a shadow. Shadows are formed when an object blocks light, creating a silhouette during the day, while disappearing when there is no light at night.


Why does your shadow move while the day goes on?

-- The shadow of an object always extends from the object in the directionaway from the light source that produces the shadow.-- If you're outside, the light source that produces your shadow is most likelythe sun.-- The sun moves across the sky, from east to west, during the day.-- So the direction in which your shadow extends from you has to move, fromwest to east, in order to always stay opposite the sun.
