    a. much stronger than that of Earth and greatly extended.

    Explanation:

    Jupiter is a gas giant. It mainly consists of hydrogen and helium and also may have rocky core. Jupiter has the fastest rotational period among the planets of the solar system. One day on Jupiter lasts for 11 hours. This rotation causes the hydrogen in the atmosphere to rotate at great speed.

    The rotation of the hydrogen generates the magnetic field of Jupiter. It is almost 14 times greater than the Earth's magnetic field in terms of strength and the second largest in terms of distance after the sun.
