Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
It will not form a shadow. Transparent objects are those objects which allow light to pass through them, hence they do not form shadows. We need opaque objects to make shadows as they do not allow light to pass through them. When we put an opaque object between the light source and the screen, it forms a shadow.
The correct statement would be glass objects don't cast shadows because all incident light completely passes through them.
