Why does pole star seem to be stationary

Answers

Answered by DeathAura

Answer:

When we look towards the pole star, it appears stationary because it is pointing exactly in the north direction. The Earth spins on its axis and the pole star is almost exactly above this axis of the Earth. Hence, it appears stationary.

Answered by SaraKunte

Answer:

The pole star appears to be stationary when we look at the sky because the pole star is located in line with the axis of the earth. So, when the Earth rotates around its axis the poles seems to be stationary.
