Because they are closer to your line of vision. . . imagine you are 10 meters away from an object. imagine you have these lines coming out of your eyes , and one of the lines touches the top edge of the object , and another line touches the bottom edge of the object. now imagine the object is 5 meters closer to you. the distance between the top edge and the bottom edge is greater because you are closer to the object. .. OK to make this simpler , -- your eye is like the top of a tweezers. you put a pen(object) between the tweezers. as you move the pen closer to the top of the tweezers , the two prongs widen, making a bigger distance, and from your viewing point at the top of the tweezers the object appears bigger.
Distant objects appear to shift more than nearer objects due to the phenomenon known as parallax. As our viewpoint changes, the angle at which we see distant objects changes more significantly compared to nearer objects, resulting in a greater apparent shift. This effect is commonly observed when viewing objects from a moving vehicle or when comparing the position of objects at different distances.
A magnifying lens, also known as a convex lens, can make objects look bigger by bending light rays to converge at a point, creating a larger image. This type of lens is commonly used in magnifying glasses, microscopes, and telescopes to achieve magnification.
The moon appears bigger when it is closer to the horizon due to an optical illusion called the moon illusion. This occurs because our brain compares the size of the moon to objects on the horizon, making it seem larger in comparison.
The word you're looking for is "telescope." Telescopes use lenses or mirrors to magnify distant objects and make them appear closer and clearer for observation.
Generally, smaller objects tend to travel further when fired from a catapult compared to larger objects. This is because smaller objects have less air resistance and mass, allowing them to be propelled with more speed and efficiency.
because of refraction
A tool you hold against your eye to make objects look bigger

convex shaped lenses are used to magnify objects
Water bends or refracts light, not only do things look bigger they are not where they appear to be.

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
The simple answer is that; it is closer. Thanks to forced perspective, smaller objects that are closer may look as big or even bigger than bigger objects that are farther away.
the shadow get bigger.
Because they are.
