Fun at partys guy: While the car will actually experience a force torwards the magnet, so will the magnet experience an equal amount of force torwards tha car. Given the connection between the car and the magnet is stiff, these opposing forces will stress the connection and create a reactive force in there according to Newtens 3rd law, ultimatly canseling the forces out and neither the car nor the magnet will move.

If you however remove the stiff connection, the car and the magnet will move torwards each other untill they meet.

I also find it funny how i got introduced to the troll physics meme 20 years before it was called that, as a small child back in the 90s

They even got one step behound: The two rocks you see in the drawing are actually a broken up magnet into it’s north pole and south pole, so it’s only magnetic when they connect the both with a metal rod. Genius. (ofc that’s EXACTLY how magnets work)
