What are the characteristics of shadow?

Answer:

The main characteristics of a shadow are:

  2. A shadow is always a dark path, it does not show the color of object.
  3. A shadow may or may not resemble the shape of the object.
  4. The size of shadow depends upon the distance from the source of light.

More information:

Shadow: Shadows are formed when some rays of light continue to travel in straight lines, while other rays are stopped by an object. An opaque object casts a dark shadow, a translucent object casts a weak one and a transparent object no shadow at all.

Definition: When an opaque object comes in path of light, a dark patch is formed behind the object. This dark patch is called a shadow.
