90° – your latitude + declination (all are in degrees)
5. this equation will tell you how high from the southern horizon an object will be found. if your answer is greater than 90 degrees then the object is not in the south at all but in the opposite direction. if your answer is a negative number, then the object is below the horizon and can’t be seen.
a) chicago is located at latitude 42 degrees n of the equator. what is the altitude of the north star as seen from this location? show your calculation for credit. (use declination = +90° for n. star) note: this star’s position does not change over the course of a day or year since it is almost directly above the rotational axis of our planet
b) alpha crucis is located at -63° (minus 63°) degrees declination. can you see this magnitude 1 star from san antonio? show your calculation for credit. san antonio's latitude is 29.5 degrees n.
c) how high is the sun at astronomical noon in san antonio on september 23? in which direction should you look to see the sun at astronomical noon (not human time) in san antonio? the sun’s declination changes daily, but repeats yearly, and is always 0° on this date. show your calculation for credit.
show and explain how to calculate this, you.

This is important 1. what happens to the speed of molecules in water vapor when it condenses to form a liquid? (2 points) the molecules slow down. the molecules speed up. the molecules slow down and then speed up. the molecules speed up and then slow down. 2. how might human activities change to compensate for a decrease in water supplies? (2 points) humans might build a factory. humans might build drainage systems. humans might extract more water from the ground. human behavior does not change because of the water cycle. i'll be grateful if anyone can answer these 2 questions !
