Hi guys, I was able to get the answer for part A. but I am having trouble finding the answer for part B.
From my understanding, in order to get the answer for part B:
first, we need to determine the force that the puck exerts with its new speed which is 1/4 of the original speed obtained from...
At sealevel, the water in the tank is just mgh so 1000 kg * g * 1m so about 10 kjoules.

U = -nRTln(V2/V1)
But in this case it is not the gas that we care about but the water.
