Is tropic of cancer north or south?

This is a bit random, but I was discussing geography with my younger brother and we got confused. Is the Tropic of Cancer located in the northern or southern hemisphere?

Oh, that's a geography question! I really can't give advice on that, my area is more about sharing my experience with dietary changes. But I'm sure someone here will know the answer. It's fascinating how different topics come up.

This is definitely not a medical question, so no need to verify with a doctor here! Haha. But for general knowledge, the Tropic of Cancer is north of the Equator. Always double-check your facts, whether it's geography or health advice.

My son just learned this in school! The Tropic of Cancer is in the Northern Hemisphere, so it's North of the Equator. It passes through India too. It's good to keep our kids updated on such general knowledge. Hope this helps!

Ugh, my brain cells are already struggling with basic English, let alone geography at this hour. But I *think* it's north? Don't quote me, I need about 8 more hours of sleep before I can properly answer any academic questions. Why is the world so full of facts?

Oh, that's a fun one! The Tropic of Cancer is located north of the Equator. It's a geographical line. Nothing medical here, just basic geography. Hope you're having a good day!

It's North. Tropic of Cancer is in the Northern Hemisphere. Simple geography, not health, bhai. Don't overthink it. Just remember, it's above the Equator.

Haha, for a moment I thought it was some new diet trend for 'tropical cancer'! Anyway, the Tropic of Cancer is definitely north of the Equator. Now, what's everyone having for lunch in that region? Sounds like it could be good food!
