When the sun reaches the December Solstice, usually on December 21 or 22.
That's the day of the December solstice, which falls between December 20 and December 23 inclusive.
That happens somewhere on the Tropic of Capricorn
once a year, for an instant, around December 21.
Cancer . . . . . around June 21
Capricorn . . . around December 22
The sun is directly overhead on the Tropic of Capricorn at the time
of the December solstice ... roughly December 22 or 23 .
December 22 or 23
around December 22
No. That is the Tropic of Cancer. The Tropic of Capricorn's dates are in December.
In Australia Between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn.
The sun is directly over the Tropic of Cancer at the time of the June solstice, and it is directly over the Tropic of Capricorn at the time of the December solstice.
The Tropic of Capricorn is in the southern hemisphere; the Tropic of Cancer is in the northern hemisphere. The way to remember is at the time of year when the sun is directly over the Tropic of Capricorn, the sun was in the constellation of Capricorn back when the tropics were named.
The sun never has or never will pass directly overhead north of the Tropic of Cancer or south of the Tropic of Capricorn. In the temperate zone in both hemispheres - the sun will be high in the sky during the summer months - but not at the zenith.

The Tropic of Capricorn is a line of latitude.
North of the Tropic of Cancer and south of the tropic of Capricorn so basically any latitude grater than 30 would never have the suns rays directly over your head
No, the sun will appear directly overhead along the Tropic of Capricorn in the Southern Hemisphere.
Yes but only northern Australia because the tropic of Capricorn pretty much cuts Australia in half. So when the winter solstice occurs in the northern hemisphere the summer solstice is occurring in the southern hemisphere and sun is directly over the tropic of Capricorn which means anyone on that line the sun will be directly over you.
The Tropic of Capricorn is located South of the equator, although it is not in a fixed location; it varies over time.
The sun never has or never will pass directly overhead north of the Tropic of Cancer or south of the Tropic of Capricorn. In the temperate zone in both hemispheres - the sun will be high in the sky during the summer months - but not at the zenith.
The sun is directly above the tropic of cancer when it enters the sign of cancer, and directly over the tropic of Capricorn when it enters Capricorn.also they are the same equal length in latitude and longitude - 33 1/3 degrees north and south.
