Question
The shadow of an object due to sunlight is the smallest during ___.
- Sunrise
- Sunset
- 12 noon
- Both 1 and 2
Hint:
The shadow of an object will be smaller at 12 noon as the distance between the sun and the object is more.
The correct answer is: 12 noon
- The size of the shadow depends mainly on the position of the light source.
- The shadow of an object due to the sunlight will be larger during the sunrise and sunset.
- The distance between the object and the sun will be more comparatively during 12 noon.
- So the shadow will be smaller at 12 noon. It is also because the light lies straight up to the object.
