Question

The tropic of Cancer does not pass through_________.
a. Jharkhand
b. Chhattisgarh
c. Odisha
d. West Bengal

Answer 1

Hint: The Tropic of Cancer passes through 17 countries around the globe. India is one of them. In India, the Tropic of Cancer passes through 8 states. It is an imaginary line passing through the middle of India, at an angle of 23.50 degrees north of the Equator.

Complete step by step answer:
The tropics are located south of the Tropic of Cancer and north of the Tropic of Capricorn. The Tropic of Cancer is one of the five major circles of latitude that mark maps of the Earth
It is the farthest northern latitude which occurs in the June solstice where the sun can appear directly overhead,
Almost halfway through the nation of India, the Tropic of Cancer (23 ° 30'N) passes. It is north of the Equator, going through the center of India. In India, the Tropic of Cancer passes through 8 states.
These eight states are Gujarat (Jasdan), Rajasthan (Kalinjarh), Madhya Pradesh (Shajapur), Chhattisgarh (Sunhat), Jharkhand (Lohardaga), West Bengal (Krishnanagar) Tripura (Udaipur), Mizoram (Champhai)

So, the correct answer is Option :

Note: In India, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat Jharkhand, West Bengal, Tripura, and Mizoram, the Tropic of Cancer passes through eight states. It does not move through the Odisha State. From the other stretches west to east, India extends between 68 ° 7'E and 97 ° 25'E longitudes. Due to the broad longitudinal degree and difference of approximately 29 °, local time differences in places located at two extreme points of the country are big. The distance between these two points will be about two hours or so.
