The mid -day Sun is exactly overhead atleast once a year on all latitudes in between the tropic of cancer and the tropic of Capricorn .This area , therefore,receives the maximum heat and is called the torrrid zone .
The mid -day Sun never shines overhead on any latitude beyond the tropic of Cancer and the tropic of Capricorn .The angle of the sun's rays goes on decreasing towards the poles .As such ,the areas bounded by the tropic of Cancer and the Arctic Circle in the northern hemisphere and the tropic of Capricorn and the Antarctic circle in the southern hemisphere ,have moderate temperatures.These are , therefore ,called temperate zones.
