Detailed Solution

By linear momentum conservation,

According to the Law of Conservation of Linear Momentum, when no external force is applied to colliding bodies in a given system, the vector summation of specific bodies' linear momentum is unaffected by their non-to-one contact.

Momentum lost by B = Momentum gained by A

Hence the correct answer is the total momentum of A and B is constant.
