Select True or False for the following statements.
The total charge on the outer surface of the large shell is +3q.
The total charge on the inner surface of the small shell is zero.
The electric field in the region r < a is zero.
The total charge on the inner surface of the large shell is +1q.
The electric field in the region c < r < d is zero.
