Tropic of Cancer

No, the Tropic of Cancer does not pass through Japan. It is located approximately at 23.5 degrees north latitude, much further south of Japan's latitude which is between approximately 24 and 45 degrees north.

The Tropic of Cancer is a parallel line located at approximately 23.5 degrees north latitude. It marks the northernmost point where the sun appears directly overhead at noon during the summer solstice in the Northern Hemisphere.

It passes through Africa, Europe and Antarctica.

There are several African countries located between the equator and Tropic of Capricorn. Here is a list of some of the countries which fall between those two points; Tanzania, Angola, Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Mozambique.

Antarctica is the only continent completely in the southern hemisphere that doesn't touch the Tropic of Capricorn. Oceania is also completely in the southern hemisphere, but it does reach the Tropic of Capricorn, although parts of it are just in the southern hemisphere. Antarctica is the only continent that reaches the Antarctic Circle, and the South Pole is part of Antarctica, but yet Antarctica is so big that it even goes out of the Antarctic Circle which means Northern Sweden is closer to the North Pole than Northern Antarctica is the South Pole.

The Tropic of Cancer travels through North America, Africa, and Asia. The Tropic of Capricorn travels through South America, Africa, and Australia.

Its Mainly that one has its solstice 21 June (Cancer) and other 21 December (Capricorn) and that one is south and one is north of Equator. They both are quite alike, both have hot dry climate and are situated 23.27 degrees in any direction of Equator.

Degrees, minutes, and seconds are used to divide the earth's surface. One degree is 1/360 of the earth's perimeter, and one minute is 1/60 of one degree, and one second is 1/60 of one minute. At the equator, the earth's perimeter is approx 24,000 miles, so one degree is approx 66.7 miles- this was traditionally called 60 nautical miles, so one minute was one nautical mile. Of course as you get nearer to the poles, the miles per degree on a parallel to the equator reduce, as the meridian lines converge. On a meridian line however the unit distance per degree is constant, except for the slight variation due to the flattening of the earth at the poles.

The Prime Meridian based on Greenwich, England, is at 0 degrees longitude and

all other meridians are "X" degrees east or west of it. The Prime Meridian was

established for navigation and is the basis on which International time is kept.

The Prime Meridian joins the North and South Poles, and passes through England,

France, Spain, Algeria, Mali, Burkina Faso, Togo and Ghana.

Between the Arctic Circle and the Equator. It is the line that describes the farthest north you can be and still have the sun at your zenith at the time of the summer solstice in the northern hemisphere. This is about 23.5 degrees N latitude.

The Tropic of Capricorn, sometimes also known as the Southern tropic, is a line of latitude about 23 degrees to the south of the equator. It is one of the five major circles of latitude that mark maps of the Earth. Its equivalent in the northern hemisphere is the Tropic of Cancer.

No. It passes north of South Australia, through Western Australia, the Northern Territory and Queensland.

Delhi is 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.

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.
