Only if both ends are at the same height. If a resultant force is more on one side than on the other side, then that will cause the side with the higher resultant to accelerate downwards or upwards, depending on the direction of the resultant force. The forces would be unbalanced in that system.
balanced forces
During the time, you're pushing it, the forces are unbalanced. Once you stop, they are balanced. Unbalanced forces result in a change in motion, even if it is slowing it to a stop. Balanced forces produce no change.
Balanced Forces
2 Forces are unbalanced when an object that is not moving starts moving or changes speed or direction. Balanced forces are the opposite they are where an object that is not moving stays still or an object that is moving stays at a constant pace.
There's no such thing as one single balanced force. A group of two or more forces are balanced if they all add up to zero. Like if two people are pushing on the same shopping cart ... one in the back pushing it forward, and one on the front pushing it backward. They add up to zero, and the cart acts exactly as if there are no forces on it at all ... it stands still. Those two forces are balanced.
Only if both ends are at the same height. If a resultant force is more on one side than on the other side, then that will cause the side with the higher resultant to accelerate downwards or upwards, depending on the direction of the resultant force. The forces would be unbalanced in that system.
If the net force is zero, then the forces are balanced. If the net force is not zero, then the forces are not balanced. You can have a balanced pair of forces, but not a pair of balanced forces.
You say that the two forces are in equilibrium.
Unbalanced forces is when the forces are 0N or more. Balanced forces are 0.
If the forces are balanced, then by definition the sum of the forces is zero.
A see-saw moves due to the force exerted by the weight of the people on each end. When one person pushes down on their side, the other end lifts up. The see-saw moves back and forth as the forces from each side balance and alternate.
Balanced forces do not alter the motion of objects.
balanced
A balanced group of forces has the same effect as no force at all.
Balanced forces acting on an object do not change the object's position.
If the freezer is stationary, the forces acting on it are likely balanced. The gravitational force pulling it downward is likely balanced by the normal force exerted by the floor, as well as any frictional forces that may oppose its motion. If the freezer is accelerating or moving, the forces may not be balanced.
When two forces cancel each other out, they are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. This results in a net force of zero and no change in the object's motion. An example is a book resting on a table where the force of gravity pulling it down is balanced by the normal force of the table pushing it up.
