Question

if you were to walk from clemson, sc (latitude 35 degrees n) to cleveland, oh (latitude 42 degrees north) which statement best describes the motion of the ncp star polaris in the sky during your walk? polaris would move from an altitude of about 42 degrees down to an altitude about about 35 degrees. polaris would remina at an altitude of 35 degrees for the entire journey. polaris would move from an altitude of about 35 degrees up to an altitude of about 42 degrees. polaris would remain at an altitude of 45 degrees for the entire journey.

Explanation:

The altitude of Polaris above the horizon is approximately equal to the observer's latitude in the Northern Hemisphere. As one moves from a lower - latitude location (35 degrees N) to a higher - latitude location (42 degrees N), the altitude of Polaris increases from about 35 degrees to about 42 degrees.

Answer:

Polaris would move from an altitude of about 35 degrees up to an altitude of about 42 degrees.
