A shadow is formed when an opaque object blocks the travel of light on a second object. Light travels in straight lines and any barrier along its path averts the rays striking the barrier.This forms a region of darkness, shaped like the surface of the object obstructing the light.
A shadow takes up all the space behind the object with light before it. Its cross-section is a two-dimensional outline of the obstructing object.
The shadow is smaller if the angle between an object and the path of light is nearer to 90°. It is longer if the angle between the surface and the path of light is smaller. If the obstructing object is closer to the starting point of light, the shadow is larger.

How are shadows formed give two reasons?
Shadows are formed when an object blocks the path of light rays, creating an area of darkness behind it. Two reasons shadows are formed are: (1) when light rays hit an opaque object and are unable to pass through it, and (2) when light rays are absorbed or reflected by an object, creating a shadow on the surface behind it.
Does wind cast shadows?
No, wind does not cast shadows. Shadows are formed when an object blocks light, but since wind is the movement of air particles, it cannot block light to create shadows.
