When the net force acting on the body is zero. The body will remain in equilibrium until an external force is applied to the body.
Starting from rest, a 2 kg body acquires a speed of 8 m/s in 2 seconds. The net force acting on the body is
In most cases, when a body is at rest, there are two forces acting on it: the force of gravity pulling downward and the normal force pushing upward. These forces are equal and opposite, resulting in a balanced or net force of zero.
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.
How the acceleration of a body related to its mass and the resultant force acting on it?

"The condition of equilibrium or motion of a rigid body is remain unchanged, if a force acting on the rigid body is replaced by another force of the same magnitude and same direction but, acting anywhere along the same line of action."
no. a force acting perpendicularly on a body cannot cancel a force which is acting horizontally on the same body.!!!!
Net force is defined as the overall force acting on an object. When a cat sleeps on a table, the net force on it is zero. When a body is at rest the net force acting on the body is zero.
Magnitude is 315 N. Direction would be opposite the first force, so they cancel out and leave the body at rest.

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.
1.a buoyant force acting on the body upwards due to air . 2.the weight of body acting downwards . this two forces acts.....
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.
