CHE SIGNIFICA SHADOW IN INGLESE

Ombra

Shadow

Un'ombra è un'area in cui la luce diretta da una sorgente luminosa non può raggiungere a causa dell'ostruzione di un oggetto. Occupa tutto lo spazio dietro un oggetto opaco con luce davanti a essa. La sezione trasversale di un'ombra è una silhouette bidimensionale o proiezione inversa dell'oggetto che blocca la luce. La luce del sole causa molti oggetti ad avere ombre in determinati momenti della giornata. L'angolo del sole, la sua altezza apparente nel cielo provoca un cambiamento nella lunghezza delle ombre. Gli angoli bassi creano ombre più lunghe. Ci sono tre parti distinte di un'ombra creata da qualsiasi sorgente luminosa a punti, dopo aver impingere su un oggetto opaco chiamato umbra, penumbra e antumbra. Per una fonte di punti solo l'umbra è cast. Questi nomi sono spesso utilizzati per le ombre lanciate da oggetti astronomici, anche se sono talvolta utilizzati per descrivere i livelli di oscurità, come ad esempio nelle macchie solari. Un oggetto astronomico lancia ombre umane-visibili quando la sua apparente grandezza è uguale o inferiore a -4. Attualmente gli unici oggetti astronomici in grado di produrre ombre visibili sulla Terra sono il sole, la luna e, nelle giuste condizioni, Venere o Giove.

A shadow is an area where direct light from a light source cannot reach due to obstruction by an object. It occupies all of the space behind an opaque object with light in front of it. The cross section of a shadow is a two-dimensional silhouette, or reverse projection of the object blocking the light. Sunlight causes many objects to have shadows at certain times of the day. The angle of the sun, its apparent height in the sky causes a change in the length of shadows. Low-angles create longer shadows. There are three distinct parts of a shadow created by any non-point light source after impinging on an opaque object called the umbra, penumbra and antumbra. For a point source only the umbra is cast. These names are most often used for the shadows cast by astronomical objects, though they are sometimes used to describe levels of darkness, such as in sunspots. An astronomical object casts human-visible shadows when its apparent magnitude is equal or lower than −4. Currently the only astronomical objects able to produce visible shadows on Earth are the sun, the moon and, in the right conditions, Venus or Jupiter.
