Why does the shadow of an object become more crisp and sharp when the object is closer to the screen/farther from the light source?
In: Physics
This is very vaguely worded so it’s kind of hard to tell what you’re wanting to know/what situation you’re imaging. What’s important to note is that light isn’t just a beam that starts at the source and ends when it hits something. Light is always reflected (talking about everyday situations here) which causes diffused ambient light which softens shadows.
