The main problem with WWI tanks was mechanical reliability. The internal combustion gasoline engine had only been around for twenty or thirty years, and were not yet very powerful or reliable. In attacks, most tanks were stopped by mechanical breakdowns, rather than enemy action.
Where tanks did manage to crawl, slowly, up to enemy positions they were very effective, as there were not hand-held antitank weapons available for front-line infantrymen. The appearance of tanks rumbling forward would often cause defenders to panic and run away. But the slow, unreliable tanks could not exploit these breakthroughs.
WWI tanks also suffered from design shortcomings. No one knew what a tank should look like, or what its capabilities should be. Armor was thin, though it would stop most rifle or machine gun bullets. Armament was also light - many tanks had only machine guns, and even those mounting cannon firing explosive shells had very little cannon.
The main problems were technological, and would mostly be solved by the next war.
Yes, world war 1 had tanks. World War 1 was the introduction of battle-ready tanks used in war.
They were the first tanks, and tanks eventually became a dominant force in warfare as we know it.
No
yes,all ww1 tanks had guns
There were no amphibious tanks used in WW1. Tanks were only used in the late World War, and they were not technically advanced enough to be amphibious. For "the late" substitute "the latter part of", and add "1" after "War".

Tanks were in development after WW1, mostly by Germany.
the tanks were used in world war one as tracked aromerd fighting vechile
Yes Germany did use tanks during world war 1, they use tanks alone with airplanes, gas masks, and submarines

Some of the long - term effects of the World War 1 tanks were that the future models had to be upgraded to reduce the weaknesses of the earlier tanks. These days, tanks can move faster and have thicker armor.
France produced more tanks during World War I than all other nations combined.
