What are the lengths of shadow during the day?

There is no one answer to that as we'd need to know your height and location and at what time of the year to give a precise answer. Generally, though, we can say that at high-noon in summer, your shadow will have minimal length as the sun is more directly above you. At high-noon in winter, your shadow will be longer as the sun is much lower in the sky than in summer. Your shadow is longest at sunrise and sunset and will shorten until high-noon after which it will lengthen.
