Yes, due to momentum. For example, an object traveling in space might have no forces acting on it but still be moving through space.

However, the question might also be asked, how did this object start moving in the first place? If the object was created in a stationary state, then unbalanced forces would have to act upon it to get it moving. The object would have to have been created while moving in order to get it to move without unbalanced forces acting upon it.

Unbalanced forces cause acceleration, not movement. An object can move at a constant speed with no net force acting on it. An example would be an object falling at terminal velocity.
It would have to have been already moving. Newton's First law states that an object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion will remain in motion with the same speed and direction unless it is acted upon by an unbalanced force. The second part of the law explains this.

Sir Isaac newton's First Law of Motion (also known as the principle of inertia) tells us that:

Every body persists in a state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled by external force to change that state.

Therefore if all the forces acting on a moving body are balanced the body will continue to move with constant velocity (Both its speed and direction will remain unchanged).

Nothing. If all forces on the object are balanced, the object will remain in motion. This is straight from Sir Isaac Newton's first law, "An object in motion will remain in motion until acted upon by an external force". By external force, he means an unbalanced external force, such as pushing the object in another direction etc...

if there is a balanced force on a moving object (no unbalanced force) the object will continue moving with the same velocity

It is not the force that is moving or not moving; what moves (or doesn't move) is any object on which the force acts.

Then it will not accelerate.

What will happen to a moving object that is not acted on by an unbalanced force?

It will not accelerate. That means that its velocity won't change.


How the unbalanced force affects the object at rest?

An unbalanced force will always make an object accelerate. If the object is at rest, it will start moving.


Can a unbalanced force change an objects motion?

An unbalanced force can: change the speed an object moves at change the direction an object is moving cause an object to start/stop moving


Why there must be an unbalanced force acting if an object is moving in a circle at constant speed?

If an unbalanced force was not acting upon it, it wouldn't be moving in a circle.An object with no unbalanced force will either not be moving, or be moving in a straight line due to Isaac Newtons 1st law of motion.

How do unbalanced forces differ from balanced forces?

An object with no force on it will either be at rest or moving with a steady velocity, an object with an unbalanced force, which is the same as saying it has a net force on it, will be accelerating (or decelerating)


What type of force causes an object t start moving?

Unbalanced force is a type of force that causes an object to start moving.


What happens when a unbalanced force is applied to moving object?

The object is accelerated in the direction of the net (or resultant) force.


Application of unbalanced forces to an object?

Any unbalanced force will cause the object to accelerate in the direction of the net force. This means that applying unbalanced forces to an object will cause it to move. Thinking of applications for moving objects is very easy.


How the forces affects the object at rest?

An unbalanced force will always make an object accelerate. If the object is at rest, it will start moving.
