Question

why shadow is black?​

Answer 1

The shadows are black because they occur when the objects are blocked from light rays.

Explanation:

• If the light falling on the object is blocked, then the light won't reach the other side of the object's surface; so shadows are said to be dark.
• And shadows mostly appear black because there will be no light to reflect.
• Even multi-colored shadows will occur when multiple color light sources act on the object and where some of the light is blocked.
• When the light source of the object is closer, the shadows will be bigger.
