What else can I help you with?
Are shadows different at different times of day?
Yes, shadows can change throughout the day as the position of the sun changes. In the morning and evening, shadows are longer because the sun is lower in the sky. At noon, shadows are shorter as the sun is directly overhead. The angle of the sun affects the length and direction of shadows.
Where is the sun in the sky to make a short shadow?
As high a possible, at mid day. It's even shorter as you get closer to the tropics, where at the right time, the sun can be directly overhead.
How do shadows change during a day?
Shadows occur when the Earth rotates and the position of the sun appears to change. Therefore, the position of the sun's rays hit the object at different angles causing a shadow to change shape.
How does the position of the sun affect an objects shadows?
The position of the sun significantly influences the length and direction of an object's shadows. When the sun is low in the sky, such as during sunrise or sunset, shadows are longer and cast away from the sun. Conversely, when the sun is high overhead, like at noon, shadows are shorter and fall directly beneath the object. As the sun moves throughout the day, shadows change in length and orientation, creating dynamic patterns on the ground.
What are exactly shadows?
Shadows are the sun's rays that are being blocked. If the sun is facing the front half of your body, of course there won't be direct sunlight behind you. This is called a shadow. Where the sun's light cannot be reached. Hope this helped!!
Where is the sun when shadows are short?

Is shadow short or long at midday?
At midday, shadows are typically at their shortest length because the sun is directly overhead. As the sun moves closer to the horizon later in the day, the shadows become longer.
Are your shadows short at sunset?
No. Because of the angle of the sun, your shadow will be longest at when the sun is rising or setting. It is shortest at noon, when your shadow is directly under you.
Do shadows change during the day?
Yes. The shadows vary with how high above the horizon the Sun is. Close to the horizon = long shadows. Straight above = short shadow. Your powers of observation will show you that they do. Continuously.
Is the shadow long or short in the evening?
The length of a shadow in the evening depends on the position of the sun. In the evening, when the sun is lower in the sky, shadows tend to be longer than during midday when the sun is directly overhead.
What is the duration of Shadows in the Sun?
The duration of Shadows in the Sun is 1.67 hours.
How the sun makes shadows?
the sun makes shadows by reflecting of something
What causes shadow to change?
The position of the sun through out the day? The Earth's rotation changes the angle of the sun as the day passes, so the shadows change based on the position of the sun in the sky. If the sun is up high (around noon), the shadows will be short or not appear to exist (they are under or nearly under the objects). As it gets later in the day, the shadows get longer.
When was Shadows on the Sun created?
Shadows on the Sun was created on 2003-05-02.
