Is it possible for an object to not be in motion and still have forces acting on it?
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.

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.
What happens to an object if the forces acting upon it are unbalanced?
It moves.
What happens to a object if there are no forces acting upon it?
It will remain in that state.
What does the unbalanced force exerted on object at rest?
When an object is at rest, the forces acting upon it are balanced - there are no unbalanced forces.
What is the definition for forceful?
Net force is the sum of all the forces acting upon an object.
What is a electrostatic force?
It is a total sum of all electrostatic forces acting upon an object.
Two or more forces that act on an object that do not cancel each other?
If the sum of all forces acting upon an object is not zero, then the object will accelerate. (Newton's first law)
When forces are acting upon something motion occurs if?
Assuming this is a vacuum: Motion would occur only if there is no secondly force acting on the object with the same magnitude(strength) but has the opposite direction to the force you're acting upon this object.
When is the velocity zero?
When an Object is at rest, or immobile [not moving].This distinctly does not mean that there are no forces acting upon it.
If an object is not moving does it have balanced or unbalanced forces upon it?
Balanced forces, by definition, have a net force of zero. That is, they are forces acting on an object which counteract each other, resulting in zero movement for the object in question.
When are all the forces acting upon an object balanced?
when the system is at equilibrium or when you are not moving in any direction at all
