How to Evaluate Rotational Energy?

Rotational Energy evaluator uses Energy for Rotation = ([h-]^2)*Beta in Schrodinger Equation/(2*Moment of Inertia) to evaluate the Energy for Rotation, The Rotational energy formula is defined as energy of series of lines in rotational spectrum of a diatomic molecule. Diatomic molecules are often approximated as rigid rotors, meaning that the bond length is assumed to be fixed. Energy for Rotation is denoted by Erotational symbol.
