If the velocity is constant, it follows that the the sum of all forces on the ice skater is zero.
A balanced group of forces acting on the object has no effect on its motion. The object continues moving in a straight line at constant speed.
A fault-block mountain forms where the edges of two plates come together to create a fault. When one plate pushes up over the other one, the upper one can continue up until it is high enough to create a fault-block mountain.
Newton's first law says "Every body remains in a state of constant velocity unless acted upon by an external unbalanced force." This means that in the absence of a non-zero net force, the center of mass of a body either remains at rest, or moves at a constant velocity.Newton's first law for moving objects with balanced force is that the object "behaves" like it has no force acting on it. Because the object has balanced force, the object has a net force of zero, and according to Newton's first law, an object that is in motion will not change its velocity unless an unbalanced force acts upon it. The object is therefore in uniform motion (aka moving at constant velocity).
Balanced forces do not bring about any change in motion. If forces are balanced, an object is either at rest, or moving in a straight line at constant velocity.
The surface of earth is in constant motion because of forces inside the planet. These forces cause sections of earth's surface, called plates, to move.

THE FORCES MOVING EARTH'S SURFACE ARE UNDERNEATH EARTH'S SURFACE, IN THE UPPER MANTLE. FWI, these forces are actually huge convection currents in the magma buried under Earth's crust.

No one answer this, please. It is from their homework, I assigned it to my own class last year. Person who did this: It is very wrong to cheat. You should try and complete your homework independently or with a text book. If you have questions, ask your teacher! That's the only way you will learn it! :) Actually, the sentence is wrong. The correct sentence is: The surface of Earth is in constant motion because of forces inside the planet. :D
It can be in equilibrium if in constant motion (constant velocity) as no forces are acting on it (no acceleration)
When neither of them had any motion to begin with. Hence, their motion remains constant, because they didn't have any to begin with.
No. An unbalanced force causes motion, but balanced forces keep a body in motion in a straight line at constant velocity, or at rest at constant 0 velocity.
Horizontal motion is only constant when it is not being affected by any forces, e.g. the horizontal motion of a projectile after it's shot.
Constant acceleration is the resulting motion of forces acting on an unbalanced bicycle.
The individual plates are in motion, but i don't think that's what you're asking. The whole earth is constantly revolving on it's axis. The earth's crust is traveling at about 800mph! So answering your question, no, the surface itself doesn't move (unless you're talking about the individual plates.)
are constant
