Does an object that has balanced forces or no force acting on it must be stationary?

No.
An object that has no net force on it will simply not be accelerating. It can be in motion, but it can not have any change in its velocity.

What can you say about the forces acting on a stationary object?
The forces acting on a stationary object are balanced. If you were to add up all the forces (taking the directions into account, you would get a total of 0. There are always forces acting on a object, such as gravity, so you cannot say that there are no forces acting on it. You can say that the forces are balanced.
When all forces acting on an object are balanced what does th object do?
Nothing.
Balancing the forces acting on an object give you the net force?
If the forces acting on an object are perfectly balanced, the resulting net force is equal to zero.
When forces are balanced compare the acceleration of an object at rest and an object in motion?
An object at rest has zero acceleration. If the set of forces acting on a moving object is balanced, then the moving object also has zero acceleration.
How do you explain the effect of balanced forces on the state of motion of an object?
A balanced group of forces acting on the object has no effect on its motion. The object continues moving in a straight line at constant speed.
Force acting on stationary object?
The forces acting on a stationary object are:PushPullGravity
Can an object that has balanced forces acting on it be standing still?
If there are any forces acting on a stationary object, then they must be balanced, or it would no longer remain stationary.It is also possible that the object is already moving. In the forces are balanced on a moving object, the object would continue moving at the same speed and direction (velocity) that it already had.
Balanced forces acting on an object do not change the object's what?
Balanced forces acting on an object do not change the object's position.
If balanced forces are acting on an object it will seem as if a net force is acting on the object?
If the forces are balanced this means that there is no net force acting
What are the similarities between balanced and unbalanced forces?
An object with balanced forces acting on it is still. An object with unbalanced forces acting on them moves at an non constant velocity. It is possible for an object to have balanced forces acting on it and yet move in a vacuum.
What can you say about the forces acting on a stationary object?
The forces acting on a stationary object are balanced. If you were to add up all the forces (taking the directions into account, you would get a total of 0. There are always forces acting on a object, such as gravity, so you cannot say that there are no forces acting on it. You can say that the forces are balanced.
What effect do balanced forces have on stationary objects?
None. There is no effect on a stationary object.
What are the between balanced force and unbalanced force?
An object with balanced forces acting on it is still. An object with unbalanced forces acting on them moves at an non constant velocity. It is possible for an object to have balanced forces acting on it and yet move in a vacuum.
What is the net force on an object that is acted on by balanced forces?
If all forces acting on the object are balanced (equal), the net force acting on the object is zero.
What happens when two balanced forces are acting on an object?
No acceleration occurs - if stationary, it does not move, if moving, it continues its original velocity (speed *and* direction).
How do balanced forces acting on an object affect its motion. How do unbalanced forces acting on an object affect its motion?
Balanced forces do not change its motion (no acceleration). Unbalanced forces changes the motion of the object (acceleration).
When the forces acting on an object are balanced the motion of the object?
are constant
