The net force of an object is zero can you conclude that the object is at rest?

You can't. The net force simply means that the acceleration is zero. It could be at rest, or the object could be moving at a constant velocity.

What hapPens to the net force of the object if it is at rest?
In that case, the net force on the object is zero.
What is a zero net force?
If the net forces acting on an object amount to zero, that object is at rest.
If the net force acting on an object is zero then what will the object do?
It will keep moving with a constant velocity since zero net force means no acceleration. If the object is at rest, it will just stay at rest.
What is the net force of something that is at rest?
The net force on such an object is zero.
What is the net force of an object that is sitting still?
Since force is a function of acceleration and an object at rest has zero acceleration, then then net force is zero as well.
When does an object have zero momentum?
If the net force on an object is zero, then the object is in equilibrium. This means there are balanced forces acting upon it, or none at all.
Net force being zero?
when the net force of an object is at zero, it is at rest. That means that the forces on it are balanced. when the net force is not zero, the forces are unbalanced.
What happens to an object when forces acting on an object are balanced?
Balanced force -> Zero net force -> Zero acceleration (stays at rest or constant velocity)
When the net force on an object is zero what will the object in motion do?
The object will remain at rest if it was at rest or will maintain its motion with uniform velocity if it was moving.
What is an object at rest on the surface of the earth is experiencing?
zero net force
If an object is at rest all forces acting on that object must be?
in equilibrium with a net force of zero
If the net force on an object is zero is the net torque zero?
Yes. If an object is at rest or in a linear motion state at constant speed, the net force applied onto the object is zero.
