Detailed Solution

A shadow is formed when an opaque body is kept near a source of light.
A shadow is formed as an opaque object is placed in the path of the light ray. When the light ray falls on the opaqued surface, the object stops the light ray according to its shape and size, and the rest of the light ray passes around its edge and makes a shadow. And if the screen is too far from the object, then shadow formation is not taking place.
