Hello, people, it would be great if you can answer this particular physics question.

A very long solid non conducting cylinder Radius R is uniformly charged with a Volume charge density. It is surrounded by a concentric cylinder tube of inner radius R3 as shown in Figure, and it also carries a uniform volume charge density?

Determine the electric field as a function of the distance r from the center of the Cylinder for :

a) 0<r<R1
b) R1<r<R2
c)R2<r<R3
d)R3<r

Hi and welcome to PF.
You have to show some attempt in order to get help. Where are you stuck exactly? Do you know Gauss's law?
