Tropic of Cancer

The world region that has vast grasslands and tropical forests spanning from the Tropic of Cancer south below the Tropic of Capricorn is primarily the region of South America. This region includes countries such as Brazil, Argentina, and Paraguay, known for their expansive grasslands (Pampas) and lush tropical rainforests (Amazon Rainforest). The Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn are imaginary lines located at approximately 23.5 degrees north and south of the equator, respectively, which mark the northernmost and southernmost points where the sun can be directly overhead.

Well, honey, areas in the tropics get more sunshine because they are closer to the equator where the sun's rays hit more directly. It's like standing right under a spotlight at a concert - you're gonna get more light than someone in the back row. So, basically, it's all about location, location, location when it comes to soaking up those sweet, sweet rays in the tropics.

Mexico City is the capital of Mexico, no surprise there. And to answer your question, Mexico City is located north of the Tropic of Cancer. So, if you were planning on chasing the sun, you might want to head a bit further south.

They DON'T meet. They are concentric parallel lines of latitude.

The Equator is 0 (Zero) degrees of latitude.

The Tropic of Cancer is 23.3 degrees N line of of latitude.

The corresponding Tropic oin the Southern Hemishere is the Tropic of Caprocorn at 23.3 degrees S line of latitude.

On the Globe/sphere/Earth the lines of latitude are parallel lines on the surface.

Being parallel lines they do NOT meet.

The declination of the sun migrates between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn because of the Earth's axial tilt of approximately 23.5 degrees. As the Earth orbits the sun, different parts of the planet receive more or less direct sunlight, causing the changing declination of the sun and the shifting of the seasons. This phenomenon is responsible for the variation in daylight hours and temperatures experienced throughout the year.

about 180 miles south;; the weather is great here in winter

The distance between Samoa and the Tropic of Capricorn is approximately 1,700 kilometers (1,050 miles).

The Tropic of Cancer is north of the Equator, while the Tropic of Capricorn is south of the Equator. As both are near the Equator, I would say they were warm. But, usually, without cloud cover to trap and keep in the day's heat, the night could prove to be very cold, as the day's heat escapes into the night sky.

Yes, on December 22 the subsolar point is at the Tropic of Capricorn, not the Tropic of Cancer. The subsolar point shifts between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn throughout the year as the Earth moves along its orbit around the Sun.

The Tropic of Cancer passes through the district of Sahibganj in Jharkhand, India.

The Tropic of Cancer is hotter than the Tropic of Capricorn because it is located closer to the equator, where the sun's rays are more direct and intense. Additionally, the Tropic of Cancer receives more direct sunlight for longer durations throughout the year compared to the Tropic of Capricorn.

Its northern border is about 11 miles (17.8 km) south of the Tropic.

Countries that are located below the Tropic of Capricorn include Australia, Chile, Argentina, South Africa, and Brazil.

The capital of the only country in the world that stretches from the equator to the Tropic of Cancer is Mexico City in Mexico.

49. Hawaii is south of the Tropic of Cancer

The Tropic of Cancer is closer to Boston than the Tropic of Capricorn. The Tropic of Cancer is located at about 23.5 degrees north latitude, while the Tropic of Capricorn is around 23.5 degrees south latitude. Boston is located at approximately 42 degrees north latitude.

The Tropic of Capricorn runs through the southern part of Africa, crossing countries like Namibia, Botswana, South Africa, Mozambique, and Madagascar. It marks the southernmost point where the sun can be directly overhead at noon, and areas south of this line experience the summer solstice in December. This position influences the climate, vegetation, and weather patterns in these regions.

The sun's rays hit the Tropic of Cancer around June 21st during the summer solstice and the Tropic of Capricorn around December 21st during the winter solstice. At these times, each respective tropic experiences its longest day or night of the year.
