The sun is seen overhead in Singapore since the ‘Tropic of cancer’ and equator pass through it and it is close to them. Whereas London is away from the Equator and the Tropics and the sun rays are never overhead beyond these tropical zones.

Explanation:

  • The tropics are located ‘23.4 degrees’ north and south of the equator. London is situated away from the ‘equator and the tropical zones’.  
  • Since the earth is tilted on its axis hence the places away from the tropics will not get direct sunlight and that is the reason sun's rays are never directly overhead in London.
