No. The stars are not only not the same brightness, they are not the same distance from us - they just "appear" to be as part of the optical illusion of earthbound astronomy. They are all of varying brightness, though fairly close in brightness overall.
The Ark is the brightest star in the big dipper
The North Star is not in the Big Dipper. It is actually Polaris, which is located close to the handle of the Little Dipper constellation. The Big Dipper is useful for finding Polaris because it points towards it.
The North Star, also known as Polaris, is located in the handle of the Little Dipper constellation. The Big Dipper is part of the Ursa Major constellation.

To find the North Star using the Big Dipper, first locate the Big Dipper in the night sky. Follow the two outer stars in the bowl of the Big Dipper to find the North Star, which is the last star in the handle of the Little Dipper. The North Star is directly above the North Pole and remains stationary in the sky, making it a reliable guide for navigation.

The double star in the handle of the Big Dipper is called Alcor and Mizar. They are also known as Mizar and Alcor.
It is the brightest star in the northern part of the sky. It is part of the Little Dipper and the Big Dipper 'points' to it. The north star is on the tip of the 'Little Dippers' handle. The brighter 'Big Dipper' is easier to see in the night sky so that will be used as a reference point. The 'Big Dipper' constellation is composed of seven stars. Three form the handle and four form the spoon/dipper part. After finding the 'Big Dipper', trace an imaginary line from the two stars on the spoon/dipper opposite the handle. Follow the line to the brightest star; that's the North Star.
