hey friend here is the answer.
plz mark BRAINLIST if you find this helpful.
The answer is B ) less than 20,000 km away.
bcz the mass of mercury is lesser than Jupiter, therefore to keep the same gravitational force , the distance has to reduced or in other words the rotating orbit must be lesser than Jupiter for Mercury.
