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.
well basically, when you have any light source and there is an object standing in front of it, the object is opaque there for light can't go through the object so it forms a shadow and light goes every where else.
The reason a tree casts a shadow on a sunny day, is the same reason anything casts a shadow on a sunny day: It blocks the sun rays.
Shadow is formed by lack of light, because opaque objects cannot transmit light shadow forms behind them.
The light rays are being blocked
Any material that is not 100% transparent will produce a shadow in light. Even glass will produce some amount of a shadow.The more opaque a material is, the darker the shadow.The more transparent a material is, the lighter the shadow.
An object (Materials) that does not allows anylight to pass through will form a shaddow:Eg.- Opaque ( Can't let any light to pass through)- Translucent (Allows a little bit of light to pass through)If you want to make sure Im correct do this experiment:Instruments:- A Cloth ( Opaque)- A torch- A Tracing paper ( Translucent)- A screenPlaces to do:- A dark roomHow to do? :- Use your torch and shone on the cloth facing on the screen, what will you see?- Use your torch and shone on the tracing paper on the screen, what will you see?You will see an unclear shadow and a clear shdow on the screen! You may also add one more item a Transparent object! You will see I'm quite correct...Shadows are formed by light, because if light shines onto an object, and the object blocks the light, the light will go sideways of the object, and therefore, a shadow is formed.Light can only travel in straight lines. If light is coming from one main source, then an object that does not allow light to pass through it, will have an absence of light behind it, i.e.a shadow.
they form clearer objects
one that copies a 3D form of a object.
You write 0.326 in standard form as 3.26 × 10-1
because light passes through, and you cant have a shadow with light on now can you?
A source of light and an opaque object.
From the absence of light. Shadow is form from an opaque or translucent object blocking a light source (since light travels in a straight line).
der, cause u got poo on it
From the absence of light. Shadow is form from an opaque or translucent object blocking a light source (since light travels in a straight line).
light is a form of energy an object which has its own light is called a source of light where as shadow is the picture of a body formed when light is blocked by the opaque bodies.
shadow is a black areashadow is formed when a opaque object is come in the path of lightWhen light passes through opaque object, some of it would be blocked and form a shaedow.The shadow is formed according to the shape of the object as light moves in straight line.When light source is blocked by an opaque /translucent object a black spot is formed on the opposite side of the light source ...that black spot is called shadow.CHARACTERISTICS OF SHADOWS?black in colour .?outline of structure of the object.?size depends upon the light source and the object.?always forms on the opposite side of the light source .
A shadow is cast by an opaque body the opposite side of the body from the source of illumination.
A shadow is cast by an opaque body the opposite side of the body from the source of illumination.
A shadow forms whenever there is a source of light and something opaque that stands in front of the light.
