What, if anything, happens to the speed of a fighter plane when it fires a cannon at an enemy plane in front of it? i've just learned about linear momentum and conservation of energy and all that. i don't know how to wrap my brain around this question!

Look at the aircraft called the warthog. If it fires enough depleted Uranium, notonly will all
the tanks be killed, so will the future generations.
