This has become one of my favorite classical mechanics problems, together with its many reincarnations.. Thanks for sharing all your logical insights.

How come there was no Normal force applied from the cart onto the 4kg mass (mass 2) in your free body diagram

[@MichelvanBiezen]

It wasn't needed since there is no friction, thus the normal force has no bearing on the system's motion
