Zero (no forces), or two or more forces that add up to zero.
When a body is at rest, the forces acting on it are balanced. These can include gravitational force pulling the body downward and normal force exerted by the surface supporting the body. As long as these forces are equal and opposite, the body remains at rest.
A body can stay at rest even though forces act on it when the forces acting on the body are balanced, meaning they cancel each other out. This balance of forces results in no net force acting on the body, allowing it to remain at rest.
Balanced forces cannot bring a body to rest. Balanced forces can act on a body which is already at rest or in motion but equal forces cannot change a bodies acceleration, kinetic energy or momentum.
A body at rest is in a state of equilibrium. This means that the net forces acting on the body are balanced, resulting in no movement.
If a body is at rest ... or traveling at a constant speed in a straight line ... there could well be millions of forces acting on it. The only conclusion you can draw from the fact that it has no acceleration is that all the forces acting on it must add up to zero.

The force is said to be "equilibrant" when acting with other forces it would keep the body at rest ie in equilibrium. Hence equilibrant would be equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the resultant of all the forces acting on the body.

A body is said to be in equilibrium if it is at rest relative to the inertial reference frame or if the forces acting on a body are equal and opposite A body is said to be in equilibrium if its acceleration is 0 and net force is also 0
Balanced forces means that the sum of the forces acting on a body is zero, and the body will have constant velocity, either at rest, or moving in a particular direction.
All forces acting on it cancel out.
Yes, an object at rest can have forces acting on it. The vertical forces acting on an object at rest would include gravity pulling it downward and the normal force from a surface pushing it upward to balance the force of gravity.
Yes, an object at rest can still have forces acting upon it. These forces may include gravitational forces, normal forces, frictional forces, or applied forces. These forces can either be balanced, resulting in the object remaining at rest, or unbalanced, causing the object to start moving.
