If shadow plot B corresponds to the stick's shadow on the day of the summer solstice [double-check answer to Canvas 15+16 and 18 (#12, #14 of the hardcopy Student Guide version)!], is it possible that there would ever be a time when the stick would cast a noon shadow shorter than the one shown along the north-to-south line? So compare the summer solstice noon shadow with noon shadows at other times of the year. Explain your reasoning. (Hint: Read the bold-face sentence in the top paragraph of this assignment.)
