At what latitude would sailing ships expect to see icebergs?
Well, that depends when the ship sets sail. In April, ships can expect to see icebergs at Latitude 64 degrees, usally the 5th day of sailing. Other months, your chances of running into an Iceberg in the other 11 months are about 33%.
If you were going to visit Colombo in Sri Lanka in December - how often would the sun be directly overhead at its zenith?
The sun is south of the equator from late September until late March.Colombo's latitude is roughly 7 degrees northof the equator, so the suncan never be directly overhead there in December. At its highest, at thetime of the March and September equinoxes, it would be 7° down from theobserver's zenith ... 83° above the southern horizon.Between March 21 and roughly September 20, the sun proceeds from theequator, to about 231/2 degrees north around June 20, and back to theequator. So during that part of the year, it crosses 7° North latitude twice ...once on its way north, and again on its way back toward the equator.The sun's motion in latitude is more sinusoidal than linear, so I'm not sure thatI'm correctly calculating the dates on which it crosses a particular latitude. Butit looks to me that it would be at 7° North latitude on April 8 and September 2.These would be the dates on which the sun would be nearest to overhead atsolar noon, for a person standing in Colombo ... whether or not he wears a hat.

Would every latitude on earth have the chance of seeing the sun directly over head is the Earth was tilted on it's axis by 90 degrees?
Only the latitudes at 0 and 180 degrees and those at 90 degrees wouldhave the chance of seeing the sun directly over it's head if the earth wastilted on it's axis by 90 degrees.==============================Answer #2:Thgere is no such latitude as "180 degrees".If the Earth's axis were in the ecliptic plane and the Earth rotated "on its side",then each pole would point directly at the sun at one moment each year.In order to follow through the annual saga, let's say that the north pole pointeddirectly at the sun on January 1, just for an example. Then . . .-- On January 1, the sun would be directly overhead at the north Pole. Allnorthern latitudes, from the equator to the north pole, would have 24 hours ofdaylight. All southern latitudes, from the equator to the south pole, would have24 hours of dark.-- From January 1 to the end of March, the sun would move slowly, fromoverhead at the north pole, to overhead at the equator. The length of daylighteverywhere in the northern latitudes, between the equator and the north pole,would gradually decrease, from 24 hours to 12 hours. The length of daylighteverywhere in the southern latitudes, between the equator and the south pole,would gradually increase, from zero to 12 hours. Every northern latitude woudhave the sun directly overhead once during these 3 months. By April 1, everyplace on Earth would have 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of dark.-- From April 1 to the end of June, the sun would move slowly, from overhead atthe equator, to overhead at the south pole. The length of daylight everywhere inthe northern latitudes, between the equator and the north pole, would graduallydecrease, from 12 hours to zero. The length of daylight everywhere in thesouthern latitudes, between the equator and the south pole, would graduallyincrease, from 12 hours to 24 hours. Every southern latitude woud have the sundirectly overhead once during these 3 months. By July 1, the northern latitudeswould have zero daylight, and the southern latitudes would have 24 hours of it.-- From July 1 to the end of September, the sun would move slowly, fromoverhead at the south pole, to overhead at the equator. The length of daylighteverywhere in the southern latitudes, between the equator and the south pole,would gradually decrease, from 24 hours to 12 hours. The length of daylighteverywhere in the northern latitudes, between the equator and the north pole,would gradually increase, from zero to 12 hours. Every southern latitude woudhave the sun directly overhead once during these 3 months. By October 1, everyplace on Earth would have 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of dark.-- From October 1 to the end of December, the sun would move slowly, fromoverhead at the equator, to overhead at the north pole. The length of daylighteverywhere in the southern latitudes, between the equator and the north pole,would gradually decrease, from 12 hours to zero. The length of daylighteverywhere in the northern latitudes, between the equator and the north pole,would gradually increase, from 12 hours to 24 hours. Every northern latitudewoud have the sun directly overhead once during these 3 months. By January 1,the southern latitudes would have zero daylight, and the northern latitudeswould have 24 hours of it.Then the whole thing would repeat during the next year.Every latitude on Earth would have the sun directly overhead twice a year, exceptthe poles, where it would be only once a year.Human life on Earth, of course, would not be possible.
