Question:
46. •• Some African tribes people claim to be able to see the moons of Jupiter with the unaided eye. If two moons of Jupiter are at a minimum distance of 3.1 × 108 km away from Earth and at a maximum separation distance of 3.0 × 106 km, is this possible in theory? Explain. Assume that the moons reflect sufficient light and that their observation is not restricted by Jupiter. [Hint: See Exercise 45b.]
