What property of light allows eclipse to be formed?
Light travels in straight lines. When the light hits the object it is stopped but the light at the edges continues to travel in a straight line so there is a shadow.The shadow is not black because another property of light. It can be reflected . When it hits an object some light is reflected. If the object is not perfectly smooth the light is scattered when it reflects.Light is reflected more from light colored objects than darker objects. So in a well lit area where there are plenty of surfaces the shadow will be less dark.A further property of light is that it will slightly bend around the corners of sharp objects. So if you look carefully you will see that the edges of a shadow are sometimes blurred. Usually this property is observed in the physics lab.Blurred edges of a shadow are more likely to occur from multiple light sources making a superimposed shadow.
Why does a shadow form behind an opaque object?
Light from the sun (or any other source) travels in particles, which strike objects and are often partially absorbed. A shadow forms behind a tree because when the particles hit the tree, they are absorbed and reflected, so that everything on the other side of the tree, where the light would have gone, receives no light. However, some light will bounce off of other objects and go behind the tree in the other particles' place. Since this other light will already have been partially absorbed, it will be more dim than direct light. Because of this, we are able to see in the shadow, but since the light there is not as strong, it is darker. This darker region behind the tree, is the shadow.
