Explanation / Answer

3. a) In collision 5, the initial momentum of A (rounding off with one significant digit) =0.2 kgm/s and the final momentum of A (rounding off with one significant digit)=0.2 kgm/s. Similarly for B, initial momentum = 0.2 kgm/s and final momentum =0.2 kgm/s. So in collsion 5 the individual momenta of each glider is constant.

b) In collision 5, the initial KE of A (rounding off with one significant digit) =0.07 J and the final momentum of A (rounding off with one significant digit)=0.07 J. Similarly for B, initial KE = 0.04 J and final KE =0.04 J. So in collsion 5 the individual KE of each glider is constant.

c) Again in collision 5, the total initial momentum of the system is 0.2 kgm/s (rounding off to one significant digit) and total final momentum of the system is 0.2 kgm/s (after rounding off to one significant digit). Similarly in collision 3, the total initial momentum of the system is 0.18 kgm/s (rounding off to two significant digits) and total final momentum of the system is 0.18 kgm/s (after rounding off to two significant digits). So in collisions 3 and 5 the total momentum of the system is constant.

d) In collision 4, the total kinetic energy initially is 0.074 J and the final kinetic energy is 0.074 J. Also in collision 5, the total kinetic energy initially is 0.1 J (rounding off to one significant digit) and the total kinetic energy finally is 0.1 J (rounding off to one significant digit). So in collisions 4 and 5 the total kinetic energy is constant.
