High pressure systems entail sinking air, while lows entail rising air. High pressure systems form where air converges in the higher levels of the atmosphere. The converging air has nowhere to go and is forced to sink toward the ground. This sinking effect inhibits cloud formation and therefore precipitation.
Because one pole of the Earth's axis of rotation (the North one) points
almost exactly toward Polaris.
If Polaris had a pimple or a bump somewhere on its edge, you'd see
the bump rotate around the whole edge, like a clock, once a day. But
the whole star appears to stay in one place, because our axis points to it.

The Hooke's law is a principal of physics that states that the force needed to extend or compress a spring by some distance x scales linearly with respect to that distance.
