I cannot be negative. such state is permitted I exceeds the maximum permitted value. mi exceeds the maximum permitted value. ms can be only +1/2 or -1/2. Icannot be negative. such state is permitted. I exceeds the maximum permitted value. m exceeds the maximum permitted value. ms can be only +1/2 or -1/2. / cannot be negative. such state is permitted I exceeds the maximum permitted value m exceeds the maximum permitted value. ms can be only +1/2 or -1/2. / cannot be negative. such state is permitted

Explanation / Answer

(a) The correct option is ml exceeds the maximum permitted value.

For l=1, ml can be only +1, 0, -1.

(b) The correct option is ms can be only +1/2 or -1/2.

For m=1, ms can be only +1/2 or -1/2.
