There will be no shadow because at the time of afternoon sun rays fall vertically downwards.

In question one morning shadow left side means direction East to ---west but how to define north and south direction? Please help me.

If Uday and Vishal stand in East and West then answer will change. Please give me the clarity about that.

How to find the original direction of Vishal?

Generally, we take the north direction upwards, west on the left side, east on the right and south towards downwards. According to that, the direction of Udai facing will be east.

Answer is wrong because no sun rises from the south in morning.

If we are crossing somewhere we only assume our direction toward the north, and someone coming infront of us that means he is going towards the south.

That is why if a shadow is left or right side doesn't matter so Uday is going toward North and also facing towards north while talking Vishal.

According to me, it can not be determined.

If it is morning rises in east and shadow falls on the west.
If it is sunset sun is in west and shadow falls on the east.

I hope these clears your doubt.

I think here there is a problem in the question i.e., they mentioned as crossing if not the answer was correct.

We know that the sun rises in the East they were talking at morning by face to face on that time the shadow of two members will fall on West. So according to the question, only the Vishal's shadow falls on the left of Udai when Udai faces to the North direction only.

So, the answer is (C) North.
