It depends what angle the light is at, for example the shadow would be longer if the light was looking atr the object from the side (45 degrees) than it would be if looking at it from the top of the object(180 degrees).

Yes, the shadow is longer behind an object, as it is cast by the object blocking the light source. The length of the shadow will depend on the angle and position of the light source in relation to the object.
Haha! Trick question. If the lamp is directly over the post, then there will be no shadow.A2. But where I live in the suburbs, all the street lamps are mounted on the end of a 2m 'horizontal' arm.
The size of a shadow depends on, the angle that the light source is hitting the object and the size of the object. In some cases, the amount of light can also affect the size of a shadow.
The length and position of a shadow depend on the angle of the light source, the distance between the object and the surface the shadow falls on, and the height of the object casting the shadow.
No. Only if the ground is level and the light source is very far away and at a 45 degree angle.
The relationship between the size of a shadow of an object and the distance of light source from the object is indirectly proportional. A short distance will make the shadow big while making the distance long will reduce the size of the shadow.

Shadows change length based on the position of the light source. When the light source is higher in the sky, shadows are shorter, while when the light source is lower, shadows are longer. Additionally, the angle and distance between the object casting the shadow and the surface it falls upon can also impact shadow length.
Your shadow changes in length and position as you walk towards or away from a light source because the angle of the light hitting you changes. When you are closer to the light source, the angle is more direct, causing your shadow to appear shorter. As you move away, the angle becomes more oblique, resulting in a longer shadow.
The brightness of the light source determines the intensity of the shadow. A brighter light creates a sharper and more defined shadow, while a dimmer light results in a softer and less defined shadow. Additionally, the size of the light source can also affect the sharpness of the shadow edges.

Light leaves the lamp and travels in straight lines from its point source. As you move away from the source, the angle between you and the light changes and this the length and position of your shadow changes.
because its telling you the sun is going nearer so it goes bigger because the sun is very big and the shadow changes because of the height and length of the sun on where it is this is my answer yea and um the flyers rock!
