Q68

Three consecutive absorption lines at 64.275 cm-1, 77.130 cm-12 and 89.985 cm-1 have been observed in a microwave spectrum for a linear rigid diatomic molecule. The moments of inertia I_A and I_B are ( I_A is with respect to the bond axis passing through the centre of mass and I_B is with respect to an axis passing through the centre of mass and perpendicular to bond axis)
