Yes - if the sum of the forces is zero.
If forces are acting on it in opposite directions. For example, a book sitting on a desk has gravity acting on it, but it has the desk holding it up. No accelleration.

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.
When the net forces acting on an object sum to zero then the object's acceleration is zero.
When an object is at terminal velocity, the two forces due to gravity and drag are equal, so the object ceases accelerating. Its motion is constant and vertically downward.
If there are two or more unequal forces acting on an object then the object will be acting on the forces. ^_^
In that case, the sum of all forces must be zero.
If you add up all the forces acting on an object, they are balanced if they equal zero. (They cancel each other out). If the forces acting on a object are balanced, then the acceleration of that object is zero. It may still be moving, but it is not accelerating. An object that is not accelerating, (the sum of the forces acting on it is zero), is in equilibrium.
You never know. The only thing you know about the forces on an object that's not accelerating is: They all add up to zero, and their effect on the object is the same as if no forces at all were acting on it. That's the same as saying that all the forces on the object are 'balanced'.
The object the forces are acting on will not move, or will be moving at a constant speed (e.g. not accelerating). This is called being in 'equilibrium'.
If the object is not moving, then the only thing you can be sure of is that since it's not accelerating, all of the forces acting on it add up to zero. Just the fact that it's not moving is not enough information to tell you that there are no forces on it.
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.
If the object is not moving, or is traveling at a constant velocity, all forces acting on the object are equal and opposite to each other. If the object is accelerating (speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction) the forces are not balanced.
Accelerating
If the object is not moving, or is traveling at a constant velocity, all forces acting on the object are equal and opposite to each other. If the object is accelerating (speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction) the forces are not balanced.
No. The net force is the vector sum of all the forces acting on an object. If the forces are balanced, their sum (net force) will be zero, and the object will either be at rest or be moving at constant velocity in a straight line. If the vector sum of the forces is greater or less than zero, then the object will be accelerating, which means it will be undergoing a change in motion.
If the force acting upon an object are balanced then the object must not be accelerating
Balanced forces acting on an object do not change the object's position.
Yes, the object can have equal forces acting in opposite directions: 5N ->[]<- 5N The object will have forces acting upon it, but will not move.
