Equations of motion — practice question

A small glider travels along a horizontal air track, as illustrated. At each end of the air track, the glider undergoes a perfectly elastic collision with a fixed buffer. Between collisions, the glider moves with constant speed. Which graph shows how the velocity $v$ of the glider changes with time $t$ as it travels between the two buffers?
