Which constellation can help a traveler find the north pole without a compass?

The constellation that can help a traveler find the North Pole is Ursa Major, commonly known as the Big Dipper. The two stars at the end of the "bowl" of the Big Dipper, called Dubhe and Merak, point directly to Polaris, or the North Star. Polaris is located nearly directly above the North Pole, making it a reliable indicator of true north. By locating these stars in the night sky, travelers can orient themselves without a compass.

How will a sailor find the west direction when he is in the sea if has a bar magnet?

A sailor can find the west direction using a bar magnet by observing the behavior of the magnet's ends, which are designated as the north and south poles. The north pole of the magnet will align itself with the Earth's magnetic field and point towards the magnetic north. To determine west, the sailor can then rotate the magnet until the north pole points towards magnetic north and then identify west as being 90 degrees to the left of that direction. This method can help the sailor establish a rough sense of direction despite being at sea.
