Suppose you could travel to Jupiter and observe changes in positions of nearby stars during one orbit of Jupiter around the Sun.

How would those changes be different from what we measure from Earth.

a. The parallax of stars, as viewed from the orbit of Jupiter, would be about twenty five times larger, since Jupiter's orbit around the Sun is about five times larger than that of Earth.
b. The parallax of stars, as viewed from the orbit of Jupiter, would be about five times smaller, since Jupiter's orbit around the Sun is about five times larger than that of Earth.
c. The parallax of stars, as viewed from the orbit of Jupiter, would be about five times larger, since Jupiter's orbit around the Sun is about five times larger than that of Earth.
d. The parallax of stars, as viewed from the orbit of Jupiter, would be about twenty five times smaller, since Jupiter's orbit around the Sun is about five times larger than that of Earth.

An alpha particle with kinetic energy 12.5 mev makes a collision with lead nucleus, but it is not "aimed" at the center of the lead nucleus, and has an initial nonzero angular momentum (with respect to the stationary lead nucleus) of magnitude l = p0 b, where p0 is the magnitude of the initial momentum of the alpha particle and b=1.40×10−12 m. (assume that the lead nucleus remains stationary and that it may be treated as a point charge. the atomic number of lead is 82. the alpha particle is a helium nucleus, with atomic number 2.) what is the distance of closest approach?
