If a nail is 50 millimeters in length what is its shadow length in millimeters?
Its shadow will be 50 millimeters in length, if you lay it down on a flat surface.
What three things do length and position of a shadow changing depend on?
The length and position of a shadow depend on the angle of the light source, the distance between the object and the surface the shadow falls on, and the height of the object casting the shadow.
How does the length of a shadow change during the yearwhy does this happen?
The length of the shadow (on a flat, horizontal floor) depends on the height of the Sun. If the Sun is higher in the sky, the shadow will become shorter.
Does the length of a sun stick control the distance a shadow moves?
yes the length of the sun stick does control the distance the shadow moves
A tree is twice as high as the length of the shadow it casts The distance from the tip of tree to the tip of the shadow is 8 feet What is the length of the shadow that the tree casts?
Since the tree is twice as high as the length of the shadow, we can set up the following equation: 2x = x + 8, where x is the length of the shadow. Solving the equation gives us x = 8 feet, so the length of the shadow that the tree casts is 8 feet.
What is the length of your shadow at midday?

How can you calculate height of a pyramid by measuring the length of its shadow?
By means of trigonometry if you know the angle of elevation or by comparing it with a nearby object if you know its height and shadow length.
what causes shadow length?
The length of a shadow is primarily determined by the angle of the sun in relation to the object casting the shadow. Shadows are longer in the early morning and late afternoon when the sun is lower in the sky, and shorter at midday when the sun is directly overhead. The size and shape of the object casting the shadow also play a role in determining shadow length.
What would the length of shadow cast by a pole be if the incident rays of the sun were direct?
I am not sure what you mean by "direct" - light tends to travel in a straight line. The length of the shadow depends on the length of the pole, and of the height of the Sun.
When observed from sunrise to sunset the length of the shadow will?
The length of the shadow will be longest at sunrise and sunset, and shortest at noon when the sun is at its highest point in the sky. This is because the angle of the sun's rays hitting the object casting the shadow is more oblique at sunrise and sunset, creating a longer shadow.
How does the position of the sun in the sky relate to the length of the shadow cast by an object?
The position of the sun relates to the length of the shadow cast by an object because, when the sun is above the object there is no shadow yet, when the sun is say to the east of the object a shadow is cast towards the west, the farther the sun for example east the longer the shadow will be towards the west.
The tallest free-standing structure in the world is the 553 meter high CN Tower in Toronto What will be the length of the shaddow of the tower on a day that the angle of 50?
To find the length of the shadow of the CN Tower when the angle of elevation is 50 degrees, you can use the tangent function. The formula is: shadow length = height / tan(angle). Thus, the shadow length would be approximately 553 meters / tan(50°), which is about 553 meters / 1.1918, resulting in a shadow length of approximately 464 meters.
