Not always the case. Depends on variety of factors e.g. Distance between object and light source, object and screen etc.

Understand that larger objects make larger shadows and smaller objects make smaller shadows when the objects are placed the same distance away from a light source. Explain that if an object moves closer to a light source, its shadow becomes larger.

Why intergers indicated by Z. Some one says that I or Z. Reason for that please explain.
There is no specific reason to use Z as sign of integer. However, in late 1930 or so a Mathematician by name N. Bourbaki made the Z as denotation of integer popular. Afterward as a representation we kept using same symbol.
