Answer 1

Ello user !!!!!!!!!

Here is your answer,

==============================================

The stiffness of the hollow shaft is more than the solid shaft with same weight.

The diameter of hollow shaft is more than solid shaft and require more space.

Hollow shafts are having more polar moment of inertia, thus they can transmit more torque compared to solid shafts.
