if only a single nonzero force acts on an object, its motion will change and will not be in mechanical equilibrium. There would have to be other forces to result in a zero net force for equilibrium.
No, for an object to be in equilibrium, the vector sum of all forces acting on it must be zero. If only one force acts on an object, then there would be a net force and the object would not be in equilibrium.
No, because since it is in equilibrium it has to have at least gravity and normal force. so it would have to have 2 forces at the least, and they would have to cancel each other out. Like a box on the floor is in equilibrium, Force of gravity pulling down and normal force pushing back up. (if it didnt have normal force then gravity would pull it under)
Mechanical Equilibrium is the state in which 2 or More forces act on an object , and cancel each other out. There has to be an even number of forces for them to cancel each other out. So no, a single force will not achieve mechanical equilibrium.
A body is in equilibrium when the force on it is zero, thus if a single force is on the body, the force must be zero or the body will not be equilibrium.
No - in fact Newtons second law of motion would be an immediate violation of such a proposition.
No. With only a single force present, the body would accelerate infinitely in the direction of that force.
No.

The two states that exist when the only force acting on an object is gravity are free fall and equilibrium. In free fall, the object is accelerating downward due to gravity, while in equilibrium, the object is either at rest or moving at a constant velocity with no net force acting on it.
An object is said to be in free fall if the only force that acts on it is gravity.
The two types of force affecting equilibrium are balanced forces and unbalanced forces. Balanced forces result in an object being at rest or moving at a constant velocity, while unbalanced forces cause an object to accelerate in the direction of the bigger force.
By the definition of mechanical equilibrium, Yes. Because the sum of forces is equal to zero, it can be seen from the equation F=ma that the total acceleration on the object must be zero in order for the equation to hold. The mass is only a constant in this equation in this situation, and remains unchanged.

A force will produce acceleration when the object moves. force in the line of motion will increase the acceleration and the force opposite to the line of motion will decrease the acceleration.
An object is said to be in free fall if the only force that acts on it is gravity.
no its not possible. if there is only one force acting on an object.
The net force is the sum of all the forces acting on an object. Weight pulls down, buoyancy pushes up. If an object weighs 50 N and the buoyancy force is 40 N, only 10 N is required to lift the object out of the water
Any force can make an object move. The only thing that's important is that the NET FORCE on the object must be non-zero; this means the force you apply must overcome any friction forces.
Yes, a ball is in equilibrium at the top of it's throw because there is a moment of no change, or equilibrium, when it is suspended in air.
A system is in equilibrium if: 1. The resultant force on it is zero. 2. The resultant torque on it is zero. Note that for a system which is a point object, only condition 1 is necessary for the system to be in equilibrium.
The reaction force acts on the object causing the original force, not on the object the reaction force is caused by. So there is only one force acting on each object, and they both move (unless there is another force outside this pair preventing such movement).
