22 A 3-D shape consists of a hollow sphere made of metal.

The diagram shows a cross section drawn through the centre, \(O\), of the sphere.

Diagram NOT accurately drawn
The internal radius of the sphere is 1.2 m.
The thickness of the metal is \(t\) cm.
The density of the metal is 2700 kg per m3
The mass of the 3-D shape is 1980 kg.
Work out the value of \(t\).
Give your answer correct to 2 significant figures.

\(\dfrac{4}{3} \times \pi \times R^3 - \dfrac{4}{3} \times \pi \times 1.2^3\) or \(\dfrac{4}{3} \times \pi \times (1.2 + t)^3 - \dfrac{4}{3} \times \pi \times 1.2^3\) | M1 |
| \(\left(\dfrac{4\pi}{3}R^3 - \dfrac{4}{3} \times \pi \times 1.2^3\right) \times 2700 = 1980\) | M1 |
\(\dfrac{4\pi}{3}R^3 = \dfrac{4}{3} \times \pi \times 1.2^3 + \dfrac{1980}{2700}\) = 7.238229474 + 0.7333333 = 7.97(1562807) | M1 |
\(R = \sqrt[3]{\dfrac{3}{4\pi} \times \left(\dfrac{4}{3} \times \pi \times 1.2^3 + \dfrac{1980}{2700}\right)}\) = 1.2392… 1.2392 − 1.2 = 0.0392 | M1 |
