3. Consider the following statement made by a student about experiment 1: "Glider A, is still moving after the collision. Glider A, keeps some of the momentum that it had initially, giving B1 only a portion of it. There is a limited amount of momentum in the system, and the most any one object can have is all of the system's momentum. Therefore, peif must be less than psif." Do you agree or disagree with the statement? Explain. 4. Check that your answer to question 2 is consistent with your answer to question with the law of conservation of momentum.

![**Conservation of Momentum in One Dimension**
**Momentum of Objects in a Collision**
**Experiment Setup:**
Experiment 1 is conducted with two gliders, \( A_1 \) and \( B_1 \), on a level, frictionless track. The mass of glider \( B_1 \) is greater than that of glider \( A_1 \) (i.e., \( m_{B_1} > m_{A_1} \)).
In experiment 1, glider \( A_1 \) moves toward glider \( B_1 \), which is initially at rest. Magnets are attached to the gliders so that the gliders repel each other without touching. After the collision, glider \( A_1 \) has reversed direction as shown below.
**Diagram Explanation:**
- **Before Collision:**
- \( v_{A_1i} \): Initial velocity of glider \( A_1 \)
- \( v_{B_1i} = 0 \): Glider \( B_1 \) is initially at rest.
- \( A_1 \) is moving towards \( B_1 \).
- **After Collision:**
- \( v_{A_1f} \): Final velocity of glider \( A_1 \) (moving to the left after collision).
- \( v_{B_1f} \): Final velocity of glider \( B_1 \) (moving to the right after collision).
**Diagram:**
```
Before collision (Experiment 1):
------> v_{A_1i}
[A_1] [B_1]
After collision (Experiment 1):
<------ v_{A_1f} ------> v_{B_1f}
[A_1] [B_1]
```
**Questions:**
1. **Drawing Vectors:**
In the spaces below, draw vectors to represent the momentum of glider \( A_1 \), glider \( B_1 \), and system \( S_1 \) (the system of both gliders) both before and after the collision. Your vectors need only be qualitatively correct (e.g., any vectors that have the same magnitude should be the same length, and a vector that has a greater magnitude should be longer).
