Q. Which one of the following place will never get the vertical rays of the sun?

A
Srinagar
B
Chennai
C
Kolkata
D
Mumbai
Solution:
  • Tropic of Cancer is the determining line for finding out whether a city in India will get vertical rays of the sun or not. Since Srinagar lies to the north of the Tropic of Cancer, it never gets the vertical rays of the sun.

  • Mumbai receives vertical rays of the sun twice a year but Delhi does not receive the same even once.
