Oh all right that makes sense. Thanks!

Use conservation of linear momentum and keep in mind that the centre of mass of the system still falls along the same path before the tank fires the shell and after it fires the shell. Once you find the velocity of the tank (or the shell, whichever one you want), it becomes a fairly easy...

Assuming that the gas in these processes is an ideal one, is the change in internal energy in an isochoric process (volume remaining constant) the same as the change in internal energy of isobaric process (pressure remaining constant)? Mathematically I can derive that they're equivalent, but...
