Pure states of Energy for a particle on a ring

The Hamiltonian for a particle of mass m moving along a ring of radius R is

where I is the moment of inertia of the particle moving on the circle, . Using the the same boundary conditions as before, , determine the allowed energies for the rotating particle.
