let's consider the three atoms composing the molecule have different masses and coordinate, while the axis of rotation is still y-axis. The first atom has a mass of 8.61 kg, with x coordinate at 3.063 m and y coordinate at 3.826 m. The second atom has a mass of 63.048 kg, with x coordinate at 87.738 m and y coordinate at 51.326 m. The third atom has a mass of 26.317 kg, with x coordinate at 42.334 m and y coordinate at 23.115 m. What is the moment of inertia in the unit of kg m2 with respect to the y axis?

The ammonia molecule can be treated as a symmetric rigid rotator, with its 3 hydrogen atoms lying in the xy plane and the nitrogen atom lying above the plane on the z axis, as shown in the attached image. If we call the moment of inertia about the z acis I3, and the moments about the pair of axes perpendicular to the z axis I1, the rotational energy of the molecule can be written as Eq 1 (see provided image).
Say that at time t = 0, the wave function of the ammonia molecule is given as Eq 2 (see provided image), where the Yl, m1(θ, Φ) are the sphereical harmonics.
Determine the probability that a measure of the rotational energy of the molecule yields the value 0 for the state ψ. What is <E> for this state?
