The spherical ring shown below is created by drilling a cylindrical hole through a sphere in such a way that the centres of the cylindrical hole and the sphere coincide.The radius of the spherical ring is 15 cm and length of hole drilled through the sphere is 18 cm.
The volume of the spherical cap (part shaded in yellow in the figure) of height ‘h’, is$ {\text{V}}_{\text{cap}}$ = $ \frac{1}{3}$π$ {h}^{2}$(3R – h), where ‘R’ is the radius of the spherical ring.

The volume the ring is
cc.
(Note: Use π = 3.14 and round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
