Step 1
Since you have posted a question with multiple sub parts, we will provide the solution only to the first three sub parts as per our Q&A guidelines. Please repost the remaining sub parts separately specifying the sub parts needed to be answered.
Given : a=2 cm, b=3cm, c=6 cm, d=8 cm.
a) The electric field inside a conducting sphere is zero and the potential is constant. The volume between a and b and c and d is a conductor. Thus the charge is zero.
Because these surfaces are conductors.
