Question

Which of the following cities will experience overhead sun twice during the year?

Options

• Kochi

• Cairo

• Jakarta

• All of them

Answer 1

All of them

Explanation:

Cities located between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn, like Kochi, Cairo, and Jakarta, experience the overhead Sun twice a year due to the apparent northward and southward movement of the Sun between these tropics caused by Earth’s revolution. This happens once as the Sun moves northward and once as it moves southward annually.
