Solution to 2008 Problem 64


\begin{align*}L = \hbar \sqrt{l \left(l+1 \right)}\end{align*}
so l = 1 in this case. So, the possible values of m are -1, 0, and 1.
\begin{align*}L_z = \hbar m\end{align*}
so, the possible values of the L_z are
\begin{align*}\boxed{-\hbar, 0, \hbar}\end{align*}
Therefore, answer (D) is correct.
