Spectroscopy
Why are rotational transitions of little use to a spectroscopist?

All of these
Because, in liquids and solids, spectral lines corresponding to rotational transitions are broadened as the result of molecular collisions and other interactions
Because the energy required to induce a rotational transition is so small that it cannot be measured
Because rotational transitions are extremely rare
