Answer:

Shadows are longest in the early morning and late afternoon/early evening when the sun appears low in the sky. As the Earth rotates on its axis, the sun hits each location in the morning at an angle. ... As Earth continues to spin toward sunset, the increasing angle causes shadows to lengthen!

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps! Have a good day!.....or not...its up to you- <3
