Question

12) John stuck a meter stick in the ground outside the school at 8:00 in the
morning (diagram 4, below). How will the shadow of the stick at 2:00 in the
afternoon compare to its shadow at 8:00 in the morning?
Position of the sun
at 8:00 in the morning

Answer 1

Answer:

Without the provided diagram, I can't see the details, but generally, the shadow at 2:00 in the afternoon will be longer than the shadow at 8:00 in the morning. This is because the sun tends to be higher in the sky at 2:00 in the afternoon, resulting in a shorter shadow at 8:00 in the morning when the sun is lower.
