Answer:

When light falls on an opaque object, light is obstructed and a dark patch on a screen kept behind is called a shadow. This is because light propagates in straight line. If the distance between the object and screen is less, the shadow will be (umbra) dark and smaller.

ANSWER

Shadows are formed because light travels in straight lines. Shadows are formed when an opaque object or material is placed in the path of rays of light. The opaque material does not let the light through it. The light rays that go past the edges of the material outline the shadow.
