Four of the seven continents (Asia, North America, Africa, and Europe) have locations north of the Tropic of Cancer (approximately 23.5° N latitude). Only Europe lies completely above it, with the Mediterranean Sea extending only as far south as 30° N latitude.
Delhi is located north of the Tropic of Cancer.
The day is June 20 or June 21 that the solstice takes place. During the summer solstice the duration of day time is directly over the tropic of cancer.
Temperate. The Northern Temperate Zone lies within this region where the sun never shines directly overhead nor stays above the horizon for more than 24 hours. Summers are generally hot and winters are generally cold in temperate zones (Northern or Southern).

The Tropic of Cancer passes through Mexico. The Tropic of Cancer is at approximately 23 degrees 30 minutes N latitude and marks the point on the Earth's surface where the Sun is directly overhead at the Summer Solstice. It also marks the northernmost point of the Tropic Zone.
There are 196 countries in the world today. It will be easier to list the 10 countries it does pass through.
South America:
Chile, Argentina, Paraguay, Brazil
Africa:
Namibia, Botswana, South Africa, Mozambique, Madagascar
Australian States:
Western Australia, Northern Territories, Queensland

The imaginary line called the Tropic of Cancer is currently near 23.438° N latitude and passes through the territories of these countries:
* In Hawaii, the line misses every island, passing between Nihoa and Necker Island.
The Tropic of Cancer passes through seven countries. Those countries are, Mexico, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, India, South China, Bahamas, and the United States.
More than half of Africa's countries are north of the equator. They are Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Algeria, Libya, Egypt, Mauritania, Mali, Niger, Chad, Sudan, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Senegal, Gambia, Guinea Bissau, Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Ghana, Togo, Benin, Burkina Faso, Somalia, Nigeria, Cameroon, Central African Republic, and parts of Uganda, Kenya, Congo, and Democratic Republic of Congo.
The Tropic of Cancer is an imaginary line, a latitude line circling the Earth at 23°26′22″N. or about 23.5 degrees north of the equator.
It is the northernmost latitude on the surface of the Earth where the Sun can shine directly overhead, which occurs at midday on the summer solstice. For places north of the Tropic of Cancer, the Sun will always appear to be south of directly overhead.
*Locations in the tropics (i.e. closer to the equator, between the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn) will show almost no difference in seasonal daylight hours.
India is divided into two halves by the tropic of cancer. The southern half lies in the tropical zone and experiences very mild winters, while the northern half lies in the temperate zone and experiences cool winters.
NO.
The Tropic of Cancer (or the Northern Tropic) and the Tropic of Capricorn (or the Souther Tropic), are the most northerly and southerly latitudes at which the Sun can appear directly overhead at noon. This event occurs at the June solstice in the northern hemisphere and the December solstice in the souther hemisphere.
Tropic of Cancer lies 23° 26′ 22″ north of the equator
Tropic of Capricorn lies 23° 26′ 22″ south of the equator
The Arctic Circle is the parallel of latitude that runs 66° 33′ 39″ north of the Equator. The region north of this circle is known as the Arctic. The equivalent latitude in the southern hemisphere is called the Antarctic Circle.
The Arctic Circle marks the southern extremity of the polar day (24 hour sunlit day, often referred to as the "midnight sun") and polar night (24 hour sunless night). North of the Arctic Circle, the sun is above the horizon for 24 continuous hours at least once per year, and below the horizon for 24 continuous hours at least once per year. On the Arctic Circle these events occur, in principle, exactly once per year, at the June and December solstices respectively. The converse is true for the Antarctic Circle
The capital city Agartala in the state of Tripura is directly on the Tropic of Cancer at 23.5°N, 91.5°E in extreme eastern India, bordering eastern Bangladesh.
The capital city Aizawl in the state of Mijoram is practically atop the Tropic of Cancer at 23.4°N, 92.9°E in extreme eastern India, likewise east of Bangladesh.
The capital city Ranchi in the state of Jharkhand is located approximately on the Tropic of Cancer at 23.3°N, 85.3°E in eastern India. (The line passes near the Kanke Dam in the north of Ranchi district.)
Three more capitals, Gandhinagar (Gujarat), Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh), and Kolkata (West Bengal) are all just slightly south of the Tropic of Cancer.
The Tropic of Cancer is the parallel of roughly 23.5° north latitude.
The Tropic of Capricorn is the parallel of roughly 23.5° south latitude.
The angle between them has to be roughly 47°.

The difference between latitude and longitude is that latitude refers to a location point's distance that is either north or south of the equator and longitude refers to a specific point's distance that is either east or west of the prime meridian. The prime meridian is the longitude line that has zero degree and passes near London, United Kingdom.
The Tropic of Cancer passes through many countries and continents, including Africa, Asia, South/Central America. Because of it's wide and diverse stretch, many different types of animals exist in its reaches. In its more tropical regions, hummingbirds, monkeys, snakes, frogs, and sloths are some commonly found animals. In its dryer climates, like the Sahara, camels, goats, foxes, gazelles, and lizards are frequently found. The animal life on the Tropic of Cancer is highly diverse, reflecting the many locations that this imaginary line passes through.
The Arctic Circle can be found North of the Tropic of Cancer.
Even though Earth may be "round" as previously stated, the Arctic Circle can be easily located when searching north of the Tropic of Cancer. Not south.
north
The Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn are the farthest possible north and south, respectively,
where the sun can be directly overhead at a point on earth.
False, unless Mexico has joined the United States.
