How to allow others to post questions on page and anyone can post comments on the question posted by other, admin approval not needed.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Blogs are not anyone can post whatever they want here sites. That’s simply not what they are designed for at all. If they were designed for an anyone can post style then they would be full of porno and spam. The vast and overwhelming majority of information on the internet is spam and over 80% of all so-called comments submitted daily to wordpress.COM hosted blogs is spam.
See here for creating a static page first https://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ Then see here for creating a contact form on it for private communication with your visitors https://en.support.wordpress.com/contact-form/

You can have either a public or a private WordPress.COM hosted blog and there is no limitation on the total number of contributors to any blog. If you’d like to invite others to publish posts or help approve comments on your blog, you can invite them to be a Contributor, Editor, or Author. If you want users to receive updates each time you publish new content you can invite them to be a follower/viewer.
To change blog visibility to Private go to > Settings > Reading scroll to Blog Visibility and choose option 3. See the guide here http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings

https://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#authorThe person will have to register a username account which requires an email address only, but does not need to register a blog. That requirement is because the software has to be able to differentiate between hackers and official users and allow access only to those with username accounts and official roles on the blog.
Upon receipt of the invitation the invitee will need to click the “Accept Invitation” button in the invitation email. If the invitee is logged into their WordPress.com username account, he or she will be taken directly to your blog. If not, he or she will be taken to the log-in screen, where he or she can either log in, or can register a new WordPress.COM user account.
Note that invitees who do create a new WordPress.com account at that point will still need to return to the invitation email and click the “Accept Invitation” button after doing so.
Lastly, there is a built-in spammer prevention so send out only 10 invitations at one point in time and then wait and manage those before sending out 10 more.
