The equilibrium price exists when at that price supply and demand for a product are equal. Apparently at that price level everybody is happy and as long as nothing changes there will be no pressure. If it would arise because of an increase in eithersupply or demand, the price would no longer be an equilibrium price and it would shift to another - higher or lower - level.

How does a change in the amount of a product lead to a shift in equilibrium, and can you explain this process?

A change in the amount of a product can lead to a shift in equilibrium by affecting the supply and demand balance. If the amount of a product increases, the supply will exceed the demand, causing prices to decrease. This can lead to a new equilibrium point where supply and demand are once again balanced at a lower price. Conversely, if the amount of a product decreases, the demand may exceed supply, causing prices to increase. This can lead to a new equilibrium point where supply and demand are balanced at a higher price.
