Want this question answered?
If it will be midday in 3 hours, it's 9 am now.
That all depends upon what time of day the shadow was cast. For example, at straight up noon, even a very tall building wouldn't cast much of a shadow, but at sunrise or sunset, even a tiny building might cast an 18 foot long shadow, or even longer.
ZaccheusAnswer:According to the Bible: "Bildad" would have to be the shortest. He was a "Shuhite" [Job 2:11].
Divisibles, the 6 foot man would cast a shadow 2 feet long.
Why would you want to know that.
The shadow of the tree would be shortest at midday when the sun is directly overhead. This is because the angle of the sunlight is most perpendicular to the tree, resulting in a shorter shadow. At sunrise and sunset, the angle of the sunlight is lower, creating longer shadows.
i think sunset, midday, sunrise or midnight i dont know but these are the answers i can give and atleast i told u somethink lol At midday, when the sun is directly overhead.
The shortest shadow on a sundial would be afternoon or Middaay
Shadows are the longest when it is dawn or night. In the afternoon, the sun is over us, which makes our shadow short!
noon
noon
On the contrary, shadows (at least, those cast by sunlight) would be shortest at mid day and longest at sunset or sunrise, which is a phenomenon you can easily observe for yourself (which is why I have categorized this question under Science Experiments).
Shadows are the shortest when the sun is high in the sky. This is because when the sun is high in the sky, sunlight is striking the ground at an almost right angle making a short shadow. If the sun would be directly overhead, there would be no shadow.
NOON When the sun is at it's highest point in the sky
Just after sunrise, or just before sunset.
June 21, because the Sun is highest in the sky
At mid-day or when the sun is as close to overhead of you as possible. At this time, your shadow will be directly below you and not long, as it is at sunrise or sunset. If you want which day in a year the Shadow likely to be smallest than it is June 22
