$X$ and $Y$ are large,parallel conducting plates close to each other. Each face has an area $A$. $X$ is given a charge $Q$. $Y$ is without any charge. Points $A, B$,and $C$ are as shown in the figure.

In the figure,the inner (shaded) region $A$ represents a sphere of radius $r_A=1$,within which the electrostatic charge density varies with the radial distance $r$ from the center as $\rho_A=k r$,where $k$ is positive. In the spherical shell $B$ of outer radius $r_B$,the electrostatic charge density varies as $\rho_B=\frac{2 k}{r}$. Assume that dimensions are taken care of. All physical quantities are in their $SI$ units. Which of the following statement$(s)$ is(are) correct?

$A$ hollow sphere of charge does not produce an electric field at any

$A$ charge $q$ is placed at one corner of a cube. The electric flux through any of the three faces adjacent to the charge is zero. The flux through any one of the other three faces is
