What happens to the altitude of polaris as you move due west from Mamaroneck to Chicago?
I have noticed that it does indeed. Polaris is definitely lower on the horizon in Southern California than it is in Northern Washington. By the time one reaches the north pole, the pole star should be directly overhead--day or night.
If observing the sky from the northern hemisphere which direction would the stars appear to move that are near the north celestial?
When in the northern hemisphere, looking north toward the celestial "axis" or North Star (aka Polaris), stars acan be oberserved to move all directions. To the south of Polaris (looking "above" it), the stars and other things move East to West across the sky. To the north of Polaris (looking "below" it), the stars and other things move West to East across the sky. Both are true for short distances, because in fact, the direction it moves is actually in a smaller and smaller circle the closer the star appears to be to Polaris. With a camera that can take long exposures (10-20 minutes or even hours) this circular motion can easily be seen.
Does the rotation of the earth affect the azimuth and altitude?
Yes, the rotation of the Earth affects the azimuth and altitude of celestial objects, as they appear to move across the sky due to the Earth's rotation. The azimuth (horizontal direction) changes as objects rise in the east and set in the west, while the altitude (vertical angle) changes as objects rise higher in the sky and then descend.
Almost all weather fronts in north america are pushed from west to east by the?
prevailing westerly winds, which are high-altitude winds that blow from west to east across North America. These winds help move weather systems and fronts from one region to another.
What is the high altitude wind that blows from west to east over the US?
jet stream

What is the altitude of Polaris as seen from New York City if the terrestrial coordinates are 41 degrees north 74 degrees west?
Polaris makes a little circle of about 1/3° radius around the celestial north pole every day. But we don't notice that, and it appears to mark the pole itself. So the altitude of Polaris is essentially equal to the observer's north latitude. If he's standing 41° north of the equator, then he'll see Polaris at roughly 41° above his northern horizon.
What happens to the land as you move west of the Mississippi?

What is the altitude for Fargo North Dakota?
The altitude at the West Fargo Municiple Airport is 274 meters above sea level.
What are the altitude and azimuth of a star that is now setting due west?
The point on the horizon that is due west has an altitude of zero and an azimuth of 270 degrees.
Does the moon move east to west or west to east?
It appears to move from the east to west.

Yes, the rotation of the Earth affects the azimuth and altitude of celestial objects, as they appear to move across the sky due to the Earth's rotation. The azimuth (horizontal direction) changes as objects rise in the east and set in the west, while the altitude (vertical angle) changes as objects rise higher in the sky and then descend.
How does the big dipper appear to be moving in relation to the star polaris?
The Dipper appears to rotate in a East to West direction around the celestial North Pole - which is a point that is very close to Polaris.
When piloting a plane east to west should your altitude be even numbers or odd?
When flying from the east to west you should fly at an even number altitude to the nearest thousand. But when flying using Visual Flight Rules you should fly at an even altitude to the nearest thousand plus 500 feet.
