Tropic of Capricorn for rainfed agriculture. Starting at the Prime Meridian and heading eastwards, the Tropic of Capricorn passes through 10 countries: The following cities and landmarks are either located near the Tropic of Capricorn, or the tropic passes through them. As the major portion of earth's land is located in the Northern Hemisphere there are only four countries entirely south of the Tropic of Capricorn (there are 74 countries entirely north of the Tropic of Cancer): Length of the Tropic on 11 June 2015, at 23°26′14″S is . Tropic of Capricorn The Tropic of Capricorn (or the Southern Tropic) is the circle
Degrees of freedom (physics and chemistry) capacity. This is because these degrees of freedom are "frozen" because the spacing between the energy eigenvalues exceeds the energy corresponding to ambient temperatures (). In the following table such degrees of freedom are disregarded because of their low effect on total energy. Then only the translational and rotational degrees of freedom contribute, in equal amounts, to the heat capacity ratio. This is why = for monatomic gases and = for diatomic gases at room temperature. However, at very high temperatures, on the order of the vibrational temperature (Θ), vibrational motion cannot be neglected. Vibrational temperatures are between 10 K
