1) Write the differences between an image and a shadow

Jyoti Pant · Accepted Answer

Image is a true reflection of body It is formed by reflection of
light rays by an object You are able to see something only when
reflected rays from a body make an image in your eyes
Whereas shadow is formed by obstruction of light by an opaque
object One cannot readily identify something by its shadow For
example, some people can make different structures look -alike of
animals etc only by their hands
