$A$ $T$-shaped object with dimensions shown in the figure is lying on a smooth floor. $A$ force $\vec{F}$ is applied at point $P$ parallel to $AB$,such that the object has only translational motion without rotation. Find the location of $P$ with respect to $C$.

  • A
    $\frac{4l}{3}$
  • B
    $l$
  • C
    $\frac{2l}{3}$
  • D
