A cart of mass `M` is tied to one end of a massless rope of length `10 m`. The other end of the rope is in the hands of a man of mass `M`. The entire system is on a smooth horizontal surface. The man is at `x=0` and the cart at `x=10 m`. If the man pulls the cart by the rope, the man and the cart will meet at the point

x=0

x=5 m

x=10 m

They will never meet
