How many degrees of latitude does the suns most direct ray this means the sun is directly overhead travel per day?
Between June 21 and December 21, it moves from 23.5 north to 23.5 south ... 47 degrees of latitude. Then during the other 6 months, it covers the 47 degrees to return back north. But the rate at which it covers this range is not constant. The speed is "sinusoidal" ... slowest at the ends, and fastest in the middle.
