Between all these molecules NH3 will have net dipole moment as it is pyramidal in shape with 1 lone pair of e- on the top of the pyramid,and 3-H atoms going down.The bond dipoles of three N-H in this molecule do not cancel each other & thus net dipole moment is of 1.49D.Besides this the orbital dipole due to lone pair is in the same direction as the resultant dipole moment of 3 N-H bonds and thus adds on the resultant of three.
Thanks & regards
