Question

The Tropic of Cancer does not pass through __________.
A) Chhattisgarh
B) Manipur
C) Mizoram
D) Rajasthan

Answer 1

Hint:
The tropic of cancer passes through India. It is $23\dfrac{1}{2}^\circ {\text{N}}$ latitude. The equator is a $0^\circ $ latitude that divides the earth into two equal hemispheres: the Northern hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere.

Complete answer:
The horizontal circle that goes around the Earth is called latitude. The Tropic of cancer is one of the latitudes. As we go up from the equator, the latitudes would be like the series of parallel circles. Latitude values range from $0^\circ $ (equator) to $90^\circ $ North (North Pole) and $90^\circ $ South (the South Pole). Every latitude must be designed with direction – N for ‘North’ and S for ’South’. For the equator, there is no north or south designation. Some latitudes are given special names. The Equator is the largest among all the latitudes. All other latitudes on either side gradually become smaller towards the pole. At the poles, they are not circles at all. These are the points. That half of the Earth Between the equator and the North Pole is called the northern hemisphere and the South Pole is called the southern hemisphere. Tallying from one post to the next, there are 180 fundamental scopes not including the equator. The jungle of disease goes through the conditions of Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, Chhattisgarh, West Bengal, Jharkhand, Mizoram and Tripura.

Thus, option (B) is correct.

Note:
The North Pole is at $90^\circ {\text{N}}$ and the South Pole is at $90^\circ {\text{S}}$. The Arctic Circle is at $66\dfrac{1}{2}^\circ {\text{N}}$, the tropic of Capricorn is at $23\dfrac{1}{2}^\circ {\text{S}}$ and the Antarctic Circle is at $66\dfrac{1}{2}^\circ {\text{S}}$. These are the special latitudes which are given special names.
