The volume of the water storage tank is the amount of space in it

The volume of the water storage tank is 6468 cubic feet

<h3>How to determine the volume?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Radius (r) = 21 feet

Height (h) = 14 feet

The shape of the water storage tank is a cone.

And the volume of a cone is:

V = 1/3πr^2h

So, we have:

V = 1/3 * 22/7 * 21^2 * 14

This gives

V = 6468

Hence, the volume of the water storage tank is 6468 cubic feet
