Question

Why the sun rays are never overhead beyond tropics ?

Answer 1

This is because our earth is tilted on its axis which is a imaginary line around the sun. Thus, it is tilted so it cannot be overhead on the tropics

Answer 2

The sun rays are never overhead at any point beyond the tropical zone.the word TROPIC means turning point.when the sun has reached its northernmost and southernmost most limits on June 21st (tropic of cancer) and 22 December (tropic of Capricorn) respectively,it appears to turn southward and northward.
